On Wednesday 9th September Convert2Green (now part of Olleco) and their partners United Biscuits (UB), were awarded the Low Carbon Fuel Initiative of the Year at this year’s Low CVP Low Carbon Champions Awards.

Olleco’s head office today received a visit from South Northamptonshire’s MP, Andrea Leadsom.

With the help of our customers, our latest donation means we have raised 39,789.90 for Hospitality Action.

Olleco, the UKs largest converter of used cooking oil and food waste into renewable energy, announced this week the successful acquisition of Convert2Green Ltd.

Wednesday 1st July was the night for rewarding achievements within the waste industry.

Olleco’s achievements delivering sustainable solutions to the food industry were ‘highly commended’ by judges at the Renewable Energy Association annual awards ceremony last night.

The 20th May saw Sainsbury’s Leven, Kirkcaldy, Linlithgow and stores across Edinburgh launch a trial of recycling banks for cooking oils. The aim of the trial is to encourage customers to recycle their waste cooking oil, whilst also saving their kitchen sink from blockages often caused when oils are poured down the drain.

Last night Olleco was a finalist at the prestigious Guardian Sustainable Business Awards. Attended by the top green companies in the country, we beat off stiff competition from the likes of Unilever Supply Chain Company AG and Veolia to be crowned the winners of the Waste Innovation award.
