Keeping our customers informed
The UK is in the process of developing
how we treat and dispose of our waste.
Veolia Environmental Services proactively
helps our customers to adjust to these
important changes using a combination
of free updates, literature, seminars, road
shows, exhibitions and online services
which offer practical advice and guidance
in a complex and rapidly evolving market.
Recycling: a business initiative
There are many pressures in today’s
marketplace forcing businesses to
re-evaluate the way they manage and
dispose of their waste. Legislation is often
the most compelling, as producer
responsibility regulations set increasingly
ambitious targets and rising landfill taxes
add to operating costs in many sectors.
An additional benefit which is often
overlooked is the reduced environmental
impact and, subsequently, the enhanced
reputation of your organisation.

As more businesses recognise the benefits of recycling, the demand
for a specialised service grows. Veolia Environmental Services has

expert help with promoting recycling within your organisation, legislative
compliance services and reliable, efficient collection of a wide variety of recyclables.
recycling solutions
Waste auditing
Our representatives conduct an audit of your company’s waste
management systems, identifying ways to minimise, re-use and
recycle your waste material. Whatever the waste type or volume,
we have the expertise, technology and resources to offer you the
best advice on all recycling issues and provide your business with
a dependable, cost-effective solution.
Regular collections
Our national capability and substantial local knowledge help us to
provide a successful service. From a single weekly collection to the
provision of a fully staffed on-site facility, Veolia Environmental
Services can deliver reliable, relevant collection services for:
Cardboard Paper
Soft plastics Glass
Wood Toner cartridges
Electrical items
Range of containers
Veolia Environmental Services can provide a range of custom-designed
recycling containers. We are constantly working on innovative new
ways to facilitate successful recycling programmes for our customers,
including colour-coded and mesh containers for optimum usage and
minimum contamination of recycled materials.
From paper containers for the office environment to Euro bins and
on-site baling systems, we can help to ensure maximum payloads,
easing congestion and reducing pollution.
Solid recovered fuel
The production of solid recovered fuel from recyclable materials is an
under-utilised technology in the UK. SRF is waste that is treated to
produce a small fuel pellet, which can be used as a substitute for
conventional fossil fuels in industrial applications such as the
cement industry.
SRF will play a significant part in the drive to divert materials that
cannot be recovered or recycled from landfill. Veolia Environmental
Services has considerable expertise in SRF production from
operations in other European countries, and will be investing in its
development as a progressive response to increasing demand for
new recycling solutions.

Targeting recycling
Installing the container is only the first
stage in achieving a successful recycling
programme. Without engagement and
enthusiasm from your staff, the initial
momentum can be lost and participation
declines. We can help to ensure your
employees stay informed and enthusiastic,
through consistent communication on
the importance of recycling and the
mechanics of achieving it within
your organisation.
Taking advantage of the understanding
gained with our customers, we have
worked to develop a set of promotional
tools to encourage recycling efforts and to
raise overall awareness of recycling,
helping you to transform attitudes within
your company.
The Target Recycling programme can be
easily incorporated into your internal
communications strategy. Veolia
Environmental Services can provide
support materials such as posters and
stickers using the easily identifiable Target
symbol, useful facts and figures to support
your own recycling messages and proven
measurement systems to ensure your
organisation takes full advantage of our
recycling services.
