Optimum Eco Group celebrates milestone with team spirit

Team spirit was on show as Optimum Eco Group staff gathered to celebrate milestone anniversaries for its two core companies based in Irvine.


CCL (North) Ltd was founded on 22nd March 2000 and specialises in secure data destruction, IT and WEEE reuse, repair and recycling, while sister company Restructa was formed on 14th April 2005 and specialises in display reuse, repair and recycling.


This year marks a double anniversary celebration for the businesses as part of the Optimum Eco Group.


To kick off the celebrations, employees from both businesses gathered at the South Beach Hotel in Troon for the special event, sporting their ‘Team 2025’ polo shirts. The group now employs over 115 people at its two sites, with many long-serving employees praising the company for being ‘like a family.’


Driver Alex Steele joined CCL less than a year after it was founded, saying: “To me, CCL has always been like a family - I've always been looked after, and it’s a good company.”


Warehouse supervisor Charlie Muirhead said: “The best thing about working at CCL is the people - the work culture is brilliant, everyone's really approachable.”

"We are excited to introduce you to the individuals who are passionate about the circular economy and dedicated to creating a more sustainable future."

To celebrate these milestones, Optimum Eco Group is launching "Team 2025," a campaign that highlights the remarkable and diverse individuals who make the group’s achievements possible. The campaign will begin with a group celebration event that brings all employees together to mark the occasion. This initiative will showcase the stories and contributions of the team members who are driving the company forward and shaping the future of sustainable resource management.


"Team 2025 is a testament to the people who make Optimum Eco Group what it is," Jim McNulty continued. "We are excited to introduce you to the individuals who are passionate about the circular economy and dedicated to creating a more sustainable future. As we grow, we are always looking for more talented people to join our team."
