About Us
GENeco is a multi-award-winning recycling and renewable energy company. We were created by Wessex Water in 2008 to help our parent company become more sustainable, and our truly ground-breaking and driven approach led to us achieving carbon neutrality and zero waste to landfill status in the first three years of operation. This remarkable progress has continued, through innovations such as our gas to grid facility, and in 2015 we were named as a Guardian Sustainable Business of the Year.
As a business we manage over 700,000 tonnes of varied waste per annum, transforming this into commercial products, renewably sourced gas and electricity powering thousands of local homes. We are consistently setting new standards within the industry and utilising ground-breaking technology to provide the best value sustainable solutions to a diverse customer base. Whether it was the VW Beetle powered by human waste or establishing a co-located food waste and sewage sludge recycling facility, GENeco was there first.
Now we're setting out to shape the future of our business. Driven by strong values and a clear direction, we're focused on helping people achieve their ambitions in the right way.
