Any other information about payment terms
Viridor introduced an automated invoice process in conjunction with a 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.

Any disputes that arise are immediately brought to the attention of the dedicated Accounts Payable team and Transactional Services Manager who will engage with all relevant stakeholders to ensure a speedy and satisfactory resolution. Any dispute arising that is not resolved is escalated through the finance management structure and the Executive Management team member if required.

Viridor South London Limited is a company within the Viridor group, a UK waste management and recycling business. Incorporated in 2012 and registered in Taunton, its Companies House classification covers treatment and disposal of non-hazardous waste and recovery of sorted materials, indicating a role in the group's waste processing operations, likely tied to a specific site or contract in the South London area. The wider Viridor group operates energy from waste facilities across the UK, processing residual waste to generate energy and investing in plastics recycling technology, with ambitions around decarbonisation. This entity itself should be understood as part of that group structure rather than as an independently trading business with its own separate operations.
