Waste Reduction Guide

Every year, businesses spend hundreds of pounds per employee on waste disposal. On top of these disposal costs, raw materials purchased and discarded represent wasted procurement spend. Employee time spent managing waste adds to operational overheads. And increasingly, customers, investors, and regulators are scrutinising how businesses handle their environmental footprint too.

The opportunity? Businesses that implement systematic waste reduction typically see disposal costs drop by 20-40% within the first year, while simultaneously improving operational efficiency and meeting growing sustainability expectations.
