At A.W. Jenkinson, we believe in making the most of every part of the tree. From the moment a seed is planted, through sustainable forest management, harvesting, and processing, to the creation of wood by-products such as shavings and sawdust, every step in the process is designed to maximise efficiency and minimise waste. This approach is what we call the Cycle of Wood—a fully circular system ensuring that nothing goes to waste. 

A&A Recycling plays a crucial role in completing this cycle by handling life-expired wood—materials that have reached the end of their primary use but still hold value. Rather than being sent to landfill, this wood waste is collected, processed, and repurposed into new, sustainable products. 

Our recycling facilities transform wood waste into valuable resources such as: 

• Mulch – supporting soil health and landscaping 
• Biomass fuel – a low-carbon energy source 
• Panel board feedstock – supporting UK manufacturing industries 

Through this process, A&A Recycling ensures that wood can be reused in multiple forms, reinforcing the principles of the circular economy while directly contributing to A.W. Jenkinson’s wider sustainability mission. By keeping wood in circulation for as long as possible, we reduce landfill waste, lower carbon emissions, and promote responsible resource management. 

From planting a seed to harvesting, processing, repurposing, and growing once more, the Cycle of Wood is a model of sustainability in action. A&A Recycling is proud to play its part in this continuous, eco-friendly loop.
