Our mission
Our mission
At Fornax Environmental Solutions, our mission is to develop state-of-the-art, fully compliant high temperature thermal treatment (HTTT) facilities utilising Best Available Technology and Techniques that will safely and effectively treat clinical and hazardous waste and generate renewable energy.
This will address a critical gap in the UK’s waste management sector. In a sector that has seen years of underinvestment, we are committed to delivering cleaner, greener, and safer solutions for the future.
We aim to build a network of small-scale facilities, designed to meet the highest R1-rated standards, in different parts of the UK. These will be designed at the optimum size to meet the need to process the clinical and industrial waste generated from within their region. This will cut down on transport emissions – known as carbon miles.
Our facilities will operate under strict environmental and regulatory standards. As a responsible operator, Fornax is aiming to help to set a new safe and sustainable standard in how the UK manages clinical and hazardous waste to generate renewable energy. We aspire to being a good neighbour in the communities where we will operate.
Strict waste acceptance criteria and on-site laboratory testing ensures that all materials and processes meet and where possible exceed Environment Agency guidelines – giving our partners full confidence in the safety, compliance, and transparency of every process.

Our first facility is currently being developed in County Durham in North East England.
