The story of Perth MRF is not unlike the story of the phoenix. Rising from the ashes of a significant structural fire in November 2019, our facility in Guildford has emerged as a new standard of safety and sustainability for Cleanaway.

The story of Cleanaway’s Guildford Materials Recovery Facility (Perth MRF) is not unlike the story of the phoenix rising from the ashes.

A significant structural fire in November 2019 shut the facility until May 2021, when it was redesigned from the ground up and reopened with state-of-the-art recycling capabilities and fire safety upgrades in place.

Today, Perth MRF stands tall as one of our Prized Assets with the capacity to process 200,000 tonnes of recyclables per annum. This represents over half of Western Australia’s commingled recycling.

Central to Perth MRF’s tale of tenacity is its team, which recently won the 2021 Star Award for Team. Cleanaway’s Star Awards recognise and reward our most dedicated team members helping to make a sustainable future possible.

Here’s what Business Manager – Recycling Sang Chi had to say about his team’s win: “Cleanaway is a great company, so to receive a recognition like this is staggering.”

“The culture at the MRF is terrific and we are blessed for the opportunity that is continuously provided to work, learn and grow as a team!”

Well done once again to all members of the Perth MRF team!
