Viridor introduced a new automated invoice process in conjunction with a new group ERP system in November 2021. This was implemented to deliver improved financial governance and improve the timeliness and response to the invoice workflow and payments to suppliers. A valid invoice reflects: • registered and approved supplier • purchase order number • includes the necessary details of goods/services, date and financial detail and sent either electronically to invoices@viridor.co.uk or by post. Whilst Viridor is not a member of the prompt payment code, we do adopt the principles of the code including: 1. paying suppliers on time – with average payment days below our standard terms 2. Clear guidance to suppliers – our terms and conditions are included within our purchase orders and on our website.

Viridor Resource Management Limited is a company within the Viridor group, a UK operator in waste management, recycling and energy recovery. Its registered business activity, per Companies House, is recovery of sorted materials. The wider Viridor group operates energy from waste facilities processing millions of tonnes of residual waste annually, alongside plastics recycling and circular economy initiatives across the UK. As this entity forms part of that larger group structure, its own role relates to resource recovery operations rather than the group's broader energy generation or decarbonisation activities, which are undertaken at group level.
