What exactly is DMR?

If you've ever seen DMR on one of our waste reports and wondered what it means, here's the answer.

DMR stands for Dry Mixed Recycling – a collection of clean, dry recyclable materials that can all go into the same recycling stream.

That includes items like cardboard, paper, plastic bottles, drinks cans and tins.

On location, separating DMR from general waste helps divert more material away from landfill, reduces disposal costs and keeps productions on track with their sustainability goals.

It's a small change that makes a big difference – and one of the many ways we're helping productions leave a lighter footprint.

Waste doesn't have to be wasted.

Our EcoPods are helping film and TV productions take another step towards a more sustainable set.

Designed to separate DMR, food waste and general waste in one simple location, our EcoPods make on-set recycling easier, cleaner and more efficient. The result?

Less waste to landfill and more materials given a second life through composting, biogas and recycling.

Practical, robust and easy to deploy, they're just one of the ways we're helping productions reduce their environmental impact without slowing down the day.

Sun's out. Cameras rolling. Traffic flowing.

When a film or TV production takes over a location, there's a lot happening behind the scenes before the director calls "action."

From managing road closures and vehicle movements to keeping residents informed and the public safe, our traffic management team helps productions stay on schedule without missing a beat.

It's all part of making the complex look effortless.

Don't worry... this isn't a recent photo of our traffic management crew. You can tell because the obligatory shorts aren't on! 😄

What it does show is the team doing what they do best – keeping traffic moving safely, staying cool, calm and collected, and always with a smile.

Professional, approachable and ready for whatever the road throws at them.

The whole squad is out in force today. 💪

It was an early start for the team, but with temperatures set to climb, beating the heat was the only sensible game plan.

Whether it's setting up unit bases, delivering equipment or keeping productions moving, the work doesn't stop... we just start a little earlier.

Stay cool out there, everyone. ☀️

☀️ The heatwave is here... and on a busy unit base, that means one thing: water is suddenly everyone's best friend.

From keeping dust levels under control and helping maintain safe working conditions, to supplying essential water for welfare facilities, cleaning and day-to-day site operations, our water bowsers are a vital piece of kit when temperatures start to climb.

Whether you're filming in a city centre, on a remote location or managing a large unit base, having a reliable water supply on hand can make a real difference to both comfort and efficiency.

The forecast says it's going to be a scorcher, so if you're planning ahead for the days ahead, make sure water is high on the call sheet.

Stay cool. Stay hydrated. Keep production moving.
