Our Company
Pinden Ltd is committed to providing the level of quality in its products and services ahat you would expect from a successful family-run business which values all its customers.

We are accredited to the three major international standards: ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. Quality control for our waste management business starts from the moment the waste arrives at our waste transfer station. We have invested heavily in automating our picking stations, enabling mechanised sorting of many materials.

Our recycled aggregate is produced in accordance with the WRAP Quality Protocol, which provides confidence that our products meet common aggregate standards. All our recycled materials and soils are analysed and graded on a regular basis by an independent external UKAS accredited laboratory and we can provide customers with detailed analyses on request.
