Welcome to Lowmac Alloys

We operate two Transfer Stations in Ayrshire, one in Ayr and one in Irvine. We also operate a Secure Shredding Facility at our Green Street Lane Depot in Ayr, which allows customers to visit and watch as their secure paper-work is shredded if, they wish to do so. We also offer the alternative where customers can purchase Secure Destruction bags & ties, which include delivery, uplift & secure shredding. A certificate of Secure Destruction is issued as proof of the above procedures taking place.

The Transfer Station in Irvine is our main area of operation where we have three picking lines, one for co-mingled mixed recycling, one for mixed general waste and, one for inert, soil brick and rubble. We are a fully licensed AATF, ATF site which allows for the secure disposal of all end of life vehicles and mixed WEE recycling material.

The recycled material that is processed through our Transfer Stations is baled and exported to various locations throughout the world. We work in partnership with all the local authorities which allows us at present to accept all the blue bin material (mixed recycling) from North and South Ayrshire councils into our operating facility at Oldhall West Industrial Estate Irvine where, it is separated and segregated in to individual recycling streams. We also purchase material from various customers throughout Scotland and England ranging from Scrap Metal, Steel-Aluminium cans, Cardboard, Paper, Plastics and Polythene.

We separate and segregate all recycling material prior to landfill; this reduces our cost, which in-turn means that we can pass the savings on to our customers. I know through experience that we are very competitive in the construction industry where our pricing policy and the allowance for capped loads is very attractive, especially in today's climate.

We have installed a screening plant for soils and inert material; we have as a consequence material for sale:

  • Top Soil
  • 6F2 - Ideal for sub-base

Our Fleet of vehicles includes:

  • One 10.00t Tail-Gate curtain-sided Vehicle
  • Seven RoRo Vehicles
  • Eight Skip Vehicles
  • Two Trade Waste Vehicles
  • One Ejection Trailer
  • One Secure Destruction Vehicle (For Confidential Paper-work etc)
  • One Pick up
