Why Recycle Through Us?
We specialise in transforming end-of-life traffic management products into new, sustainable goods within the same sector.
All our processing and production takes place within the UK to support the local economy. This is just one of the many benefits we offer, as outlined below:
- Reduces waste ending in landfill and ease of disposal.
- Protects your brand, ensuring responsible waste management.
- New products produced from recycled materials.
- Helps reach your sustainability goals, supporting a more self-sufficient resources management in the UK.
- Certification provided, ideal to include in your ESG program and statement.
- Be part of an award-winning scheme.
While many recycling plants export finished materials overseas, we are proud to be an exception.
By recycling domestically, we ensure compliance with the UK's high environmental and safety standard, preventing exploitation and environmental harm that may occur in countries with less stringent regulations.
Ordering Process
Step 1
Please email a completed End-of-life Road Traffic Management Products form along with images of your palletised products to recycling@cusack.co.uk

Important: Barrier feet and connectors in good condition can be reused. Please consider removing them for reuse before recycling.

Why Recycle Batteries?
Prevent Pollution:
Batteries contain hazardous materials like lead, mercury, cadmium, and lithium. If disposed of improperly, these toxic substances can leach into the soil and water, causing significant environmental damage. Over time, these chemicals can contaminate ecosystems, harm wildlife, and even make their way into drinking water sources, posing health risks to humans and animals alike.
Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions:
By recycling batteries, the energy required to produce new batteries from raw materials is reduced, which in turn lowers greenhouse gas emissions.
Meet Environmental Standards:
Proper battery disposal is often mandated by environmental laws and regulations. Recycling ensures
compliance with these regulations, helping businesses avoid fines and legal issues while also supporting broader environmental protection efforts.
Avoid Health Risks:
Improper disposal of batteries can lead to the release of harmful chemicals into the air and water, which can pose serious health risks to humans. For example, mercury and lead exposure can cause neurological and developmental problems, particularly in children.
