About Us

Aberdeen Harbour

LIML was established in 2019 by Roddy Allan and Guy Cook (now retired), as a subsidiary of Leuven Services.

Why Choose LIML

LIML adds value by inspecting, sorting and finding buyers for surplus inventory, thus reusing and recycling the inventory for its original purpose.

There are no upfront fees or charges for our services, and we work on an open book policy for full transparency.

This enables us to work in a cost effective and efficient manner.

We can work via various agreements, including:

  • Identification of both safety-critical and time-critical inventory for storage or disposal in conjunction with the client
  • The categorisation of inventory and assessment of value
  • Outright purchases from the client
  • An open book ‘sell on’ service where future sales are split on an agreed basis

Our Mission

  • To provide a cost-effective service to clients for the disposal of surplus and used inventory
  • To maximise the reuse and recycling of materials and equipment
  • To minimise wastage with minimal environmental impact
