I’M LOOKING FOR OFFTAKERS FOR MY WASTE

You’ve created a great waste fraction, like RDF/SRF, but where can you effectively send it?
Which companies are looking for materials with your specifications? How do you find them, and how do you make the right arrangements? Cores has a vast network and knows which companies are waiting for your material.

But that’s just the beginning. How do you get your material there, what’s the best logistical solution, what are the rules around transport, and what documents are needed for a notification? Oh, and maybe you need to cross the (English) border…?

So many questions. We have the answers. So why spend valuable time on research when the knowledge is right in front of you?

With our broad market knowledge, we offer custom door-to-door logistical solutions that fit your needs as a waste processor.

We are the expert partner that completely unburdens you. This is how we do it:

We:

  • Handle the application and management of TFS notifications for all waste streams;
  • Manage the logistical planning and align your needs with the logistical challenges and demands of your buyer, and take care of the daily management;
  • Pre-notify cross-border waste shipments with the authorities and prepare all the necessary transport documents;
  • Handle customs formalities (both export and import clearances);
  • Provide expert advice on the notification procedures for various waste streams;
  • Organize all the administration, and have it available for questions from partners or authorities.

I’M LOOKING FOR FEEDSTOCK FOR MY PROCESSES

Which companies have the material that meets your needs? How do you find them, and how do you make the right arrangements What is your process, and what material do you need for it? Chances are you have specific requirements for the material you want to receive, as recycling installations vary quite a bit… not to mention chemical recycling or incineration with district heating and/or energy recovery.  ? Cores has a vast network and knows which companies produce suitable material.

But that’s just the beginning. How do you get your material delivered, what’s the best logistical solution, what is the legislation around transport, and what documents are needed for a notification? Oh, and do you need to cross the (English) border…?

We bring different parties together and ensure the right connection between suppliers and buyers.

With our broad market knowledge, we offer custom door-to-door logistical solutions that fit your needs as a waste processor.

We are the knowledge partner that completely relieves you. This is how we do it:

We:

  • Handle the application and management of TFS notifications for all waste streams; 
  • Manage the logistical planning and balance your needs with the logistical challenges and demands of your buyer, and we take care of the daily management;
  • Pre-notify cross-border waste shipments with the authorities and arrange all the transport documents needed;
  • Handle customs formalities;

  • Organize all the administration and have it available for questions from partners or authorities.

Consultation

We are always ready to brainstorm on how to improve processes even further. For example, optimizing recycling processes and facilities. By restructuring processes, substantial cost savings are often achievable, as more waste can always be separated so every waste stream has the potential to be commercialized.

We offer solutions for every type of waste. And because we are independent, we find the best solution for your waste by examining all possibilities without bias.

Or is everything well organized but you aren’t entirely confident about submitting a notification dossier to the authorities? Many of our partners are experts in waste, know their processes inside out, and have longstanding partnerships they are very satisfied with. But when it comes to preparing notifications, structuring required documents, or maintaining contact with authorities… yes, that’s where our expertise and someone who thinks along can be a real asset.

And while we’re at it, perhaps you’d appreciate it if we also took care of the daily transport administration, logistical planning, and coordination? Keeping track of which shipments need loading today or how many shipments you can still pre-notify… you probably have more valuable things to spent your time on!

We aim to inspire the market with new developments, insights, and a wealth of up-to-date knowledge—whether technical or logistical. Our extensive experience has made us a true knowledge hub, and we’re eager to share our knowledge with you. We take our advisory role seriously, so you can focus on your core business.

Do you need advice and want to know what we can do for you? Get in touch with us.

We:

  • Conduct waste audits;
  • Have expertise in processes, facilities, and production lines;
  • Act as an assembly partner and contact point for your notifications;
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of regulations and legislation;
  • Monitor the latest market developments and adapt our advice accordingly;
  • Manage special projects with tailored solutions that meet your specific needs.

PERNS

PERN stands for Packaging Export Recovery Note – a form of subsidy for packaging waste.

Cores is accredited to trade PERNs in the UK, which enables us to offer a better price for English packaging waste. We ensure that this waste is processed by reliable R3 processors in Europe, allowing us to achieve the best processing for plastics, paper, and glass.

Do you see an opportunity to collaborate regarding this material? Contact us!

BV or Ltd

Cores Environment consists of a Dutch entity (Cores Environment BV, based in Zwanenburg, Netherlands) and an English entity with a registered address in London.

Naturally, we are a Dutch company, with roots firmly in North Holland. But our English entity allows us to clear shipments in the UK, organize the recycling of English packaging waste, and fully assist our English partners with their notifications.

Our Dutch and/or English entities hold broker/dealer licenses to operate from the following countries:

  • Netherlands
  • Germany
  • Belgium
  • England
  • Northern Ireland
  • Ireland

Logistics

How do you get from A to B most effectively? This obviously involves the route, but also the type of transport. What does the material look like, how accessible are the locations, and what costs are associated with each type of transport? These are all questions that impact the choice of transport.

Cores has experience with bulk transport by ship, full and partial loads, trucks or trailers, “walking floors,” and increasing multimodal and rail transport options. Together, we work out the advantages, disadvantages, and costs of each possibility, finding the right partners for the job.

Cores doesn’t have its own drivers or equipment, but we have an extensive network of trustworthy partners with the necessary permits for waste transport.

And when the transport plan has been fully worked out? We ensure the correct information is included in notifications, and that all involved parties are informed of route possibilities and restrictions.

If desired, we handle the required transport documents, logistical planning, daily coordination, and administrative processing (including contact with all involved parties) and, when needed, ensuring quick and accurate customs clearance.

P.S. We’re always open to innovative ideas and new collaborations. If you’re a transporter interested in partnering with us, we’d love to hear from you!
