Source Segregation

Greenzone is proactive in promoting recycling and source segregation of recyclable materials from general waste.

It the most cost effective and environmentally friendly method of ensuring compliance with the pre-treatment legislation.

The government is making moves to reduce the amount of general waste sent to landfill through the implementation of the pre-treatment requirements and Landfill Regulations. It is significantly increasing the rate of Landfill Tax applied. This is designed to force businesses to reduce waste generation through diversion of materials to recycling.

Businesses who fail to respond to these changes in legislation can expect to be penalised financially as the cost of their waste disposal increases. To demonstrate this, the following graph highlights the economic case for source segregation and recycling of materials given government moves to ensure doing nothing becomes cost prohibitive:
