WHY IS WASTE SEGREGATION IMPORTANT?

Segregating waste is in the best interest of our health and environment.

When mixed dry and wet waste breaks down in landfill, it creates nasty greenhouse gases.

Segregating waste helps divert it from landfill ensuring it’s recycled properly. Mixed dry waste such as glass and paper can be turned into new products. This saves energy and resources needed to create products from raw material.

WHAT IS DRY WASTE?

Dry mixed waste consists of waste that doesn’t decay. It is free of organic material such as food. It is also known as non-biodegradable waste

Dry mixed recycling helps materials find second lives. For example, glass can be recycled hundreds of times into new jars and bottles.

Glass

Metal

Timber

WHAT IS WET WASTE?

Wet waste (such as food scraps or cooking oils) is biodegradable. Recycling diverts food waste from landfill and turns it into compost.

Restaurants, factories and building sites all need efficient wet waste solutions. Many of them rely on URM to help their business run smoothly.

Organic food matter

Cooking fats

Oil

Grease

Hazardous waste

Other liquid waste produced as a by-product.
