Notes on Annual price reviews for 2006 to 2007

 While some prices remain the same, others have had to increase substantially to reflect the following costs which we are to incur: 

  • Wessex water take all our treated effluents and whilst we remove most contaminants and biologically treat the waste we are still charged for some organic loadings that remain. Their costs have increased 18% over the last 2 years
  • Our energy costs have increased by around 50% in the last 2 years and many of our processes require heat or significant electrical consumption (for example mixer tanks and centrifuging).
  • The costs for incineration and energy recovery have increased in 2006 due to new interpratations by the EA as to the status of some recovered wastes/ products
  • The new Hazardous Waste Regulations 2005 have added costs to our business
  • Inflation has been around 3% in the last 12 months
  • Landfill tax increases if your waste has a portion of material that will need to go to landfill (less than 12% of what we bring in has to go to landfill due to the investments we have made in the last few years). The tax increases by £3 per tonne and landfill operators are also increasing their costs.
