Companies increasingly face increasing environmental and sustainability requirements, such as obtaining an environmental permit. But how does your company obtain such a permit? A waste prevention plan is a must for this!
One of our clients needed an environmental permit. Using our expertise, we not only assisted them in developing a waste prevention plan, but also helped the company with an in-depth analysis of their waste streams and finding practical solutions.
Valuable insights
Our process began with a "waste walk" at the production site, where we analyzed waste management and examined the causes of waste production. This in-depth analysis led to valuable insights and strategies to reduce waste production.
- Improved waste management: We helped identify areas for improvement in waste streams, leading to more effective waste prevention.
- Employee awareness: Our advice to improve waste streams raised employee awareness of waste management.
- Cost savings and circularity: The advice contributed to cost savings and steps toward circularity.
Obtaining the environmental permit
After weeks of effort, our client received its environmental permit. This important permit, granted by the province, demonstrates their commitment to the environment and sustainability.
Getting started on improvements
Because of this achievement, the company began implementing further improvements in their waste collection processes. With the new permit as their motivation source, they set to work to effectively address sustainability challenges such as reducing residual waste. Through this great partnership, we not only met the requirements for the permit, but also achieved significant improvements in their waste management.
