Encirc

Encirc played host to Northern Ireland Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, Andrew Muir, on Thursday where he enjoyed a tour of our site as well as discussing some of the key challenges facing the local glass manufacturing business. Important issues such as Extended Producer Responsibility, improving #recycling rates, a circular #economy and exploring the possibility of replacing fossil fuels with #biomethane in the Northern Ireland gas network were all debated. Encirc is thankful to the Minister for taking the time to engage and to see how our large-scale manufacturing site, employing over 500 people, operates. Encirc Managing Director, Sean Murphy said: “It was great to welcome the Minister to Fermanagh. We had some very constructive talks with Minister Muir and his team on a number of key topics. “This is very much an ongoing process but there was a broad will to progress projects that will not only secure the sustainable future of our business but help the whole Northern Ireland economy to strive towards a net zero future.” #PartOfTheVidralaGroup

Encirc has achieved Platinum Level in the 2024 Northern Ireland Environmental Benchmarking Survey for the fifth year in a row, being recognised once again for its commitment to improving its environmental impacts. 132 of Northern Ireland’s most sustainable businesses were revealed at an event on Wednesday in Belfast to announce the results of the 2024 survey, organised by responsible business network Business in the Community Northern Ireland. Only 39 of those businesses achieved Platinum Level. To achieve the platinum award again is a strong endorsement of Encirc’s continued progress towards building a sustainable and successful business in line with climate change targets. It's rewarding to have achieved this important industry benchmark once again and well done to Keelin McCone and the BITC team for putting together another great survey and event.
