Waste Management

All the waste that your business produces has both a financial and environmental cost associated with it that is often underestimated. It is easy to see this waste in terms of; unwanted packaging (cardboard, pallets), unused raw materials, demolition waste, and process water (cooling, washing). However, the bigger question here is around understanding where this waste has come from, and whether it is possible to eliminate this waste at source, reduce, re-use or recycle it and this is where an understanding and use of the waste hierarchy and Envirowise comes in.
