FSM gets specialist recycling licence

Food Surplus Management (FSM) — an Enterprise Ireland client company specialising in recovery of out-of-date packaged food products for the wholesale and retail sectors — has been awarded a Category 3 Intermediate Plant Licence.

This permits it to recycle packaged waste food into products for the pet food, animal feed, technical and bio-fuel industries. This can reduce the amount of food waste sent to landfill.

FSM becomes one of the first companies in Europe to achieve the licence.
