Reconomy strengthens US footprint with ninth acquisition
Reconomy, the international circular economy specialist, today announces the acquisition of Waste Disposal Solutions through Lincoln Waste Solutions by Reconomy (Lincoln).
Founded in 1996 and headquartered in Greensboro, North Carolina, Waste Disposal Solutions is a leading outsourced waste management and recycling solutions provider, with a proven track record of identifying material cost savings for customers and increasing their profitability through innovative, sustainable and comprehensive recycling solutions. The business serves customers across the construction, logistics and manufacturing sectors.
This latest transaction is Reconomy’s ninth acquisition in North America and is in line with its strategic priorities of delivering superior earnings growth by scaling its platform across large, structurally attractive growth markets. This acquisition brings new capabilities to Lincoln, its core brand in the region, further cementing its position as a top-three waste operator in the US. With linear resource chains, low recycling rates and a heavy reliance on landfill and incineration, the US offers significant long-term opportunities for circular economy solutions.
