More than 100 jobs saved as sale secures Black Country biofuels business
More than 100 jobs have been saved following the sale of a Black Country biofuels business after it went into administration.
Lifecycle Oils Ltd, a collector and processor of used cooking oils for subsequent use as biofuels, went into administration last month with Mike Denny and Michael Magnay, of leading professional services firm Alvarez & Marsal, appointed as joint administrators on December 12 2025.
The company, which also sells fresh cooking oil to the catering and food manufacturing industry, has a production facility in Wednesbury and a head office based in Walsall as well as an additional 12 microsites across the UK.
Immediately after their appointment, the joint administrators completed a pre-packaged sale of the business and assets of Lifecycle Oils Ltd to Quatra UK Ltd.
