Fueled by purpose: Symal’s growth continues with Ascot Bin Hire

Just over a month since welcoming Ascot Bin Hire into the Symal family through our sustainability business, Sycle, we’re seeing the benefits of strategic growth in action.

Our first acquisition since listing on the ASX, Ascot represents more than just expansion — it’s a values-aligned partnership that strengthens our capability in waste management and resource recovery. With Ascot’s long-standing reputation, operational strength, and people-first culture, the integration has already brought meaningful momentum to Sycle’s mission.

To mark the milestone, teams from Symal, Sycle and Ascot came together at Ascot’s Sunshine facility for a sunrise BBQ — a moment to connect, reflect and look ahead. It wasn’t just about breakfast, it was about reinforcing what makes this partnership work: genuine people, shared values and a clear vision for a smarter, more sustainable industry.

“We’re not just growing for the sake of scale — we’re growing with purpose,” said Joe Bartolo, Symal Group Managing Director. “Ascot brings capability, community connection and a team of people who care about what they do. That’s exactly the kind of business we want to build with.”

With more growth on the horizon, Symal remains committed to expanding in ways that align with our values and create long-term value — for our people, our partners and the communities we work in.

Smart growth. Bold partnerships. A better way forward.
