Background
Although Oatley Resources specialises in working with suppliers and customers, and then arranging logistics to move material from one to the other, we appreciate that there are many instances where overseas customers buy direct from UK suppliers, or UK suppliers deal directly with overseas reprocessors.
Since Brexit, when the UK left the European Union, transporting goods into and out of the country has become more difficult - both in organising transport itself, but also in the technical and administrative burden of new and enhanced customs requirements. Additional controls are now in place both at the UK border and also at the ports of entry into different countries in the EU and beyond. These can take up significant amounts of time, and if not handled correctly, can result in loads being prevented from departing the country with costs for waiting time, port and ferry charges.
We can add value to your existing direct relationships by offering our services in the areas of logistics, export documentation, customs clearances and declarations and PERN management.
Logistics & Export Documentation Services
If you have a relationship with your reprocessor or supplier, but need someone else to organise the transport and make sure the import and export clearances all run smoothly, then please contact us to discuss your needs.
Packaging Export Recovery Note (PERN) Management Services
If you and your reprocessing/supply partner are exporting packaging waste - plastic, fibre, steel or aluminium - then it might be that you are missing out on the value of Packaging Export Recovery Notes (PERNs) that could be issued for your materials.
As an accredited exporter of packaging waste, we can work with both suppliers and overseas reprocessors to transparently help manage your transactions to ensure they are captured in the PERN system with the resulting added value created by issuing Packaging Export Recovery Notes (PERNs).
Can We Help?
If you think our logistics, export documentation or PERN expertise might benefit your company, then please contact us to discuss opportunities or to arrange a meeting to discuss potential options.
Our Services
Suppliers
We purchase plastics, fibre, metals and glass products from UK sites, helping suppliers meet quality standards and paying premium prices for products. Our compliance system gives suppliers peace of mind that their products are recycled at licenced reprocessors.
Customers
From our network of UK suppliers, we procure specific products and qualities for each of our customers – whether they are based in the UK, mainland Europe or further afield in India, USA or the Far East. Our inspection processes ensure that customers have confidence that they will receive the products and quality that they ordered.
Logistics & Export Documentation Services
Some suppliers and customers prefer to deal direct with each other, but need specialist assistance on transport and shipping, arranging export documentation, loading and pre-loading inspections and environmental compliance.
Products We Trade
Plastic
We handle a wide range of baled plastic bottle and film grades, bulk bags, polystyrene and specification regrinds and pellets, connecting UK suppliers with domestic and overseas customers.
Fibre
Whether its bulk quantities of cardboard and mixed papers, or more specialist grades such as cores, kraft sacks, or tissue scrap, we can give you a secure solution for your buying or selling needs.
Glass & Metals
We handle various grades and qualities of sorted steel and aluminium cans from household recycling, as well as glass from post-industrial and post-consumer sources.
