Deeside based paper recycler Allan Morris bought by Swedish firm

Deeside paper recycler Allan Morris has been acquired by Sweden’s Ekman & Co AB.

The acquisition, for an undisclosed sum, will see Allan Morris Recycling operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ekman.

Allan Morris, which operates its state-of-the-art paper recovery facility, will retain its name.

Carl Robertson will continue to lead the Sandycroft-based firm as its managing director, alongside the dedicated team that has been instrumental in the company’s success.

The integration of Allan Morris Recycling into the Ekman Group promises to bring about new opportunities for innovation and efficiency in recycling processes.

With the support of Ekman’s resources and global network, Allan Morris Recycling is poised for further growth and development.

“We have been working with Allan Morris Recycling in recent years, and we have always been impressed with their professional and flexible approach to doing business.”

“I am particularly pleased that Carl Robertson will remain with the business as its Managing Director, along with his key staff, whom we welcome with open arms and look forward to working with for many years to come.”

Carl Robertson said, “Our relationship with Ekman has always been positive, and their long-term commitment and credibility align perfectly with our culture.”

“With Ekman, we gain access to expertise, new partners, and financial strength, which will support our continued growth.”
