SUEZ operates the Altens East recycling and recovery centre on behalf of Aberdeen City Council. The facility was put in the spotlight in July 2022 after the plant was destroyed in a major fire, with the likely cause suspected to be a battery or battery-operated device that a resident had by accident put into their recycling bin.
Following the fire, SUEZ reached out to Portakabin to provide temporary office and welfare accommodation for its staff after it was found the adjacent office building would be temporarily unusable.
