Waste prevention
Waste prevention has become a major issue in our society. Legislation rolled out in recent years incites local authorities to implement programmes aimed at defining ways to reduce waste at source, change behaviours and encourage recycling.
Research into the constituents of packagings, product eco-design, and the orientation of consumers’ habits to encourage them to reduce their waste are themes that are regularly included in the consultancy services we provide to local authorities.
