About Us

Recycling, run by people who've done it for decades

Pulp Friction is a South East London and Kent recycling business built on personal relationships, hard-won industry knowledge, and a straightforward way of doing business.

The Pulp Friction team

A team that knows waste paper inside out

Between our directors and senior managers, the Pulp Friction team carries over 100 years of combined operational experience in the recycling industry. Several of us have owned and run recycling businesses of our own — knowledge that shapes how we treat every customer, from a single office to a national distribution network.

Our roots are in paper and cardboard, and that's still where our expertise is deepest. But the business has grown around that core to cover plastics, metals, general waste and environmental consultancy — always with the same standard of accuracy, compliance and service.
