Smurfit Kappa Recycling, U.K., has named Andrew Perkins commercial director. He will assume his new position at the beginning of December.
Perkins will join Smurfit Kappa Recycling from Aylesford Newsprint in the U.K., where he has been head of recycling for a business that handled 500,000 metric tons of material per year. His many years of experience in growing paper recycling businesses and increasing recovered paper supplies also includes a period at Biffa.
Smurfit Kappa Recycling's current commercial director Martin Blood, who has been with the company for more than 40 years, is stepping down from his current role, but will continue to work for the company on a part-time basis and will assist Perkins.
"I am delighted that Andrew will be joining us later this year as commercial director," said Simon Weston, managing director of Smurfit Kappa Recycling. "His many years of experience in the paper recycling business will add further strength to our team and I know he is looking forward to the fresh challenge."
Part of the world's largest fiber-based packaging group (Smurfit Kappa Group, Ireland), Smurfit Kappa Recycling provides a full spectrum of paper and board recycling solutions for businesses and organizations, including recovery of containerboard, office papers, and plastics and security shredding.
