is very proud to be associated with the CORE waste recycling initiative. We have been involved with the CORE at Prestonfield since January 2009. They have been collecting our organic waste for recycling into compost on a trail basis, and the results of this trail have been amazing. Since we began using the service, we have reduce the amount of waste going to Landfill by up to 50%, and also saving on our operating costs as well. We have not experienced any problems with the service and have now started to introduce this service at our other two restaurants, the Witchery by the Castle and The Tower Restaurant.

The service has been excellent, as they have managed to adept to my need during the trail period. The whole system has been well thought out which makes it so easy to use. The clear signage is a great idea. I have been able to reduce my landfill costs by half. This has made a huge impact on the business and I am confident that we could be landfill free in two years.

We increased recycling significantly. Very happy overall.

The service we have received from CORE at Ikea Edinburgh has been first rate. They are very flexible in finding the best solution and service for recycling. Matthew Hope-Environmental Specialist

The team that operate our food recycling service at CORE have been very supportive in helping us set up our scheme. They have provided invaluable training for our team members and an excellent service throughout our time working with them. Claire Steven-General Manager

Core provides a very professional service, but more importantly the environmental benefits of diverting food waste from landfill are considerable. Any organisation looking to reduce the environmental impact of its operation should take advantage of this service. David Fairhurst-Environment Manager

Pickled Green feel that it’s imperative to do as much as possible in terms of waste management. CORE have been invaluable in this process, both in terms of their flexibility and helpfulness. We would recommend CORE to all food businesses, for your own sake and for the environment’s. Steve Brown – Pickled Green

I would like to say that my experience, commenting from an operational perspective, has been positive. We have not had any major problems and when problems have arisen we have been informed promptly. Also, where additional uplifts and additional items, such as bags or bins have been requested, our requests have been fulfilled in a timely fashion. I hope that we will continue to have a professional relationship long into the future. Chris Marr - Deputy Residence Manager

Everything here is ok with us collection and uplift wise, we do not seem to be having any problems at all. Debbie Scott- Food & Beverage Manager
