FCC enviro has completed the acquisition of the Cumbria Waste Group business in the United Kingdom from Waterland Private Equity.

FCC enviro has been present in the British market since 1989 through its affiliate FCC Environment UK and is one of the leading waste and resource management operators in the country. The acquisition of Cumbria Waste Group’s business will enable it to deepen its geographical coverage and further expand its product and service offering to enhance value for its customers.

Based in the north of England, Cumbria Waste Group is a provider of waste solutions for both municipal and commercial customers, operating material recovery, composting, hazardous & liquid waste treatment and household waste recycling facilities alongside waste, recycling and organic collections.

FCC Environment UK Chief Executive Officer Steve Longdon said “this is another very positive move for our business here in the UK, further strengthening our core services and our customer service proposition. With strong cultural and operational alignment between the businesses, we are looking forward to welcoming the Cumbria Waste Group team and to continuing to deliver exceptional services both to existing and to our new clients”.
