Profile
Morph® is an innovative 100% recycled and recyclable modular construction system which repurposes and reduces plastic waste, encourages long-term investment and supports the circular economy movement.
The idea evolved from concerns about damaging industry behaviours, particularly the throw-away culture in the commercial office furniture and fit-out sectors. Practices widely accepted as the norm, where functional furniture and dilapidations are prematurely discarded to landfill, are having a devastating and long-term impact on the environment and Morph Bricks Ltd wanted to find a solution.
Injection moulded using 100% post consumer recycled ABS plastic, Morph bricks consist of four core components – single brick, double brick, base and top. Lightweight and strong with a uniquely designed male to female connection, the bricks interlock in a staggered brick formation to create multiple designs including walls, desks, tables, video conferencing units, counters, tiered seating and meeting bays. Reusable, every product can be taken apart and rebuilt into a new design. Recyclable, end of life bricks can be recycled into new components without waste.
Complementing the recycled plastic range, we also manufacture Morph Bio bricks made from carbon negative Bio composite material.

The Lincolnshire Waste Partnership (LWP) aims to:
- Provide innovative, customer-friendly waste management.
- Seek the best environmental options.
- Give value for money to Lincolnshire residents.
- National policy — In December 2018 the Government published its new national waste and resources strategy for England.
- Food waste — The national strategy proposes weekly food waste collections from 2023, in preparation they have been running a trial for food waste collections in South Kesteven to understand the challenges this may bring. They are seeking a sustainable and renewable solution which will be explored over the next few years.
- Plastics — Since the adoption of the Lincolnshire strategy, the world has seen a blaze of interest in plastic waste and how the recycling we collect is handled. Media investigations have challenged waste management practices and raised the profile of accountability and social responsibility.
- Waste crime — The Environment Agency (EA) has an open invitation to LWP meetings providing advice and guidance, the LWP also support the EA in waste crime operations in the county.
- Recycling quality — A separated paper and card collection trial in place from September 2019 with the aim of avoiding any contact with liquids and food, keeping it clean and dry, means they can meet high quality standards of the paper mills who recycle waste paper and card saving vital natural resources. The trial has been a great success and plans are underway to expand collections to more areas in Lincolnshire.
- The wider environment — Driving many miles to collect and dispose of waste increases the carbon footprint for their transport operations so they have worked to optimise routes and are investigating how, in the longer term, they can change to different vehicle fuels to reduce their CO2 emissions.

Two waste teams collecting bins from over 116,000 homes across Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire have joined forces in a bid to reduce cost. Cambridge City Councils fleet of 27 bin lorries have begun operating from Waterbeach depot, where South Cambridgeshire District Councils waste operations are based.
The management teams for the two councils waste operations came together in August saving over £100,000 a year and with the operations now working out of one depot, further efficiencies will be sought to drive down costs.
Cambridge City Councils waste crews and staff had previously operated from a depot on Mill Road which is earmarked for redevelopment in the future.
The single shared waste management team are now working on integrating the bin collection rounds across the two districts in order to make efficiency savings on fuel and vehicles. It is expected the annual savings from the move to a shared waste service will be around £700,000.
Both Councils already take waste and recycling they collect to the processing centres near the Waterbeach depot.

ReNew ELP are launching the world’s first HydroPRS™ hydrothermal advanced recycling site in Teesside, North East England, in 2023. Capable of producing 20,000 tonnes of recycled, fossil-equivalent hydrocarbons annually, this first site will act as a springboard for further global sites by parent company, Mura Technology, based in London. The process uses water at high pressure and high temperatures to convert end-of-life waste plastic back into the oils it was originally made from, for use in the manufacture of new plastics and other products.
The HydroPRS™ technology can recycle the ‘unrecyclable’ – plastic materials currently sent to landfill, incineration or leaked into the environment, such as flexible, multi-layered, soft and rigid plastic – producing from it the ingredients for new plastic, creating a circular economy and significantly reducing carbon emissions. This eliminates the need for fossil resource in the manufacture of plastic.
Instead of continually making new materials as part of a ‘single-use’ culture, Mura’s process creates an infinite loop of creation, use, and recycling.
HydroPRS™ delivers a sustainable, low carbon circular plastics economy by avoiding harmful greenhouse gas emissions from burning plastic and producing premium oils at a lower carbon footprint than the current fossil-based system.

Berry bpi Recycled Products one of Europe’s largest manufacturers of polythene films, bags and sacks, supplying over 270,000 tonnes of product each year. They are the largest recycler of polythene waste in Europe, recycling up to 70,000 tonnes of post-use polythene each year from horticultural, commercial, retail, industrial and agricultural markets.
The polythene is cleaned and turned into pellets, which are used to create innovative second life products, such as The Green Sack®, a 100% recycled refuse sack. The Green Sack® is made using waste farm polythene, such as used bale wrap and horticultural films which, because of their inherent strength, provide superior levels of performance.
They also use these pellets to manufacture Plaswood, an award winning range of 100% recycled furniture and landscaping solutions. Plaswood is the environmental alternative to wood, made from waste agricultural plastics, such as used silage stretch wrap and crop cover.
The environmental benefits of recycling plastic are becoming more widely recognised: maximising reusable material, diverting waste from landfill and conserving resources. Berry bpi Recycled Products has developed the necessary expertise and the infrastructure in the form of a network of Environment Agency accredited recycling plants to help drive these benefits forward.
