There was no mistaking the party atmosphere at the inauguration of the Stena Nordic Recycling Center, the Stena Metall Group's largest industrial investment, on October 26. The event was a great success, with around 450 guests getting to experience our state-of-the-art recycling facility, including the 95 percent recycling rate we achieve for end-of-life vehicles.
October 26 will be the grand opening of Stena Nordic Recycling Center in Halmstad. A recycling facility the size of 80 soccer pitches with modern and efficient processes, making it possible to recycle more material, primarily metals, in a sustainable way from industry, households and society in general.
Kristofer Sundsgård will take over as President of Stena Recycling on September 1st. The current President, Staffan Persson, will become Head of Business Area Recycling for the Stena Metall Group.
