Blue Phoenix is pleased to announce that the acquisition of Meldgaard Recycling and Meldgaard Sustain representing Meldgaard’s complete IBA business in Denmark and abroad has now been finalized.
The integration into the Blue Phoenix family of businesses was marked today by an internal event at the main location in Kolding, Denmark with attendance of among others Blue Phoenix Global CEO, Paul Night and CFO, Arjen de Jong.
The two companies bring with them more than 25 years of valuable experience within IBA processing and IBAA recycling and around 75 employees. Noticeably, Blue Phoenix will also be adding a fleet of advanced mobile plants for IBA processing which will significantly strengthen our market position in Europe, the U.K. and the U.S.
Within the coming months, Meldgaard Recycling and Meldgaard Sustain and their activities across markets will be integrated fully into the Blue Phoenix brand. We ask for your patience and understanding as a customer, supplier and partner to the businesses, as we work towards as smooth and effective an integration for you as possible.
We are sure that this acquisition will enable us to move closer still to our mission of nothing wasted, every resource reborn.
