Here are some simple tips for businesses to get involved:

​

• Establish Recycling Stations: Set up clearly labelled recycling bins for different streams, such as cardboard, organic and comingle waste, and so to reduce general waste. Consider using our Speedie Recycling Stations.

 

 

• Conduct a Waste Audit: Create targeted recycling strategies by analysing the type of waste produced in your business, explore opportunities for reduction, and determine which materials can be recycled, and a plan to actualise this. 

 

• Educate Employees: Raise awareness about the significance of recycling and your company's initiatives. Provide training on proper recycling practices, including sorting materials correctly, reducing contamination, and maximising recycling efficiency.

​​

• Recognise and Reward Recycling Efforts: Implement a recognition program to acknowledge employees who actively participate in recycling to foster a sustainable culture within your business.

​

• Reduce Single-Use Items: Encourage reusable water bottles, coffee cups, and lunch containers. Go paperless, reduce packaging waste, and choose eco-friendly alternatives.

​

Remember that our commitment to recycling should not be limited to a single week, rather it should be the instigator for continual practice. 

 

By actively getting involved in National Recycling Week and embracing sustainable practices every day, we can all make a difference towards Ensuring Tomorrow.
