THE OPERATIONAL EDGE BY CTR
Dougie Mac Awards
Operational Edge is CTR’s take on downstream performance - clear insights on margin recovery, brand-safe redistribution and zero-to-landfill practice. Expect trend analysis, benchmarks and “what’s possible” examples from retail, supermarkets and wholesale that help you brief stakeholders, shape strategy and move faster with confidence.
Business Partnership and Sustainability Awards
We’re incredibly proud to share that CTR Group has been recognised by the leading charity, Dougie Mac with a Business Partnership Award, alongside a Sustainability Award.
Having worked together for many years, this recognition means a huge amount to everyone across CTR, from our drivers and sorters to our office teams, all of whom are committed to delivering meaningful sustainability outcomes for our charity partners.
Dougie Mac provides vital hospice care and support for adults, young adults, children, and their families facing life-limiting illness across Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire. Their work is essential to the community, and we’re honoured to play a part in supporting their mission, and grateful to Liz Clarke and Karen McKenzie for their ongoing support!
A strong partnership
With a shared commitment to improvement
What makes this partnership so strong is a shared commitment to continuous improvement. The Dougie Mac team are always reviewing their processes, and together we focus on reducing waste, increasing reuse, and maximising recycling. We always enjoy welcoming their teams to the CTR site, giving them insight into what happens next in the journey of the goods we collect.
This award also follows our recent EcoVadis sustainability recognition and reinforces our strong commitment to a zero-to-landfill operation.
CTR remains the only UK collection company operating both a dedicated bric-a-brac sorting line and a WEEE processing line, ensuring full compliance and maximum recovery.
A big thank you to everyone at Dougie Mac!
This recognition means a great deal to the entire CTR team!
