With the support of its parent company, AMC Group, William Rowland recently invested in a state-of-the-art headquarters and recycling centre in Tankersley, which has enabled it to expand and diversify its offerings even further.
Recent investments in key plant room equipment are said to have reinforced the company’s commitment to precision, efficiency, and minimising waste. The company is also placing a greater focus on scrap and recycling supply chains, reducing its carbon footprint while recirculating valuable metals back into the industry.
