Residents in Dumfries and Galloway will soon be able to recycle even more of their household waste at a modern new facility which is being created using robust retaining walls supplied by Poundfield Precast.
Due to open in autumn 2026, Dumfries Zero Waste Park is being constructed at Locharmoss to give local people more opportunities to recycle while helping to meet sustainability targets. As part of the project, a refinements hall at the Ecodeco mechanical biological treatment unit on the outskirts of Dumfries is also being transformed into a dry recyclates bulking facility to allow materials to be managed and transferred more effectively.
Dumfries and Galloway Council contracted Ashleigh (Scotland) Ltd to deliver the scheme, with Poundfield supplying and installing its Alfabloc retaining wall system to support construction.
