By Jack Lavington, Managing Director @ Ellgia
Ellgia’s people know how crucial it is for businesses to adapt to new waste management practices. Simpler Recycling is the cornerstone of a raft of resources and waste management legislative changes underway that over time will be enforced.
Our dedicated staff are fully committed to ensuring that customers will meet these new recycling standards. Working together we can help your business play a part in our hopes for a more environmentally sustainable use of the planet’s finite resources
What this means in practical terms for an Ellgia customer is that one of our dedicated Account Managers can work in partnership with you from day one to better understand how waste and recycling materials move in and out of your premises. Our teams will work with you to constantly review our services for you, maximise recycling and deliver cost efficiencies for your business by minimising waste and eliminating materials sent to landfill.
How we manage our waste and recycling behaviours both at home and in the workplace is going to experience substantial transformation over the coming five years. Simpler recycling is just part of this suite of legislative drivers that will bring both challenges and opportunities which we can help your business address as we all support the delivery of a genuine circular economy.
