The Northern Ireland-headquartered company said the deal forms part of its wider growth strategy, expanding its product range and capabilities across the UK, Ireland and international markets.

The addition of Lyndex Recycling Systems is expected to enhance CK International’s offering in the channel baler and scrap recycling segment, while broadening its ability to provide integrated recycling solutions.

Early integration work is already underway, including product development initiatives, expansion of field service coverage and upgrades to production capability.
