Over a third of all the food waste generated globally is wasted. All of this waste, which equates to around 900 million tonnes, ends up in landfills around the world and accounts for around 10% of all man-made greenhouse emissions.

Happy World FM Day! To celebrate, we are delighted to share an interview with our resident FM account expert and our newest Account Director, Cymbeline Leadbitter on her thoughts on waste management in the FM sector.

We are delighted to have been nominated for the Waste Management Initiative in the Retail, Commercial and Public Sector award in the Awards for Excellence 2022 for our work with Whistl UK Ltd.

We are delighted to announce that we have joined the Good Business Charter demonstrating our commitment to responsible business practice.

Zest Recycle has successfully secured the recycling and waste management contract for national pub chain Blackrose Pubs, in a partnership that will see Zest Recycle managing the waste resources across the brand's chain of over forty pubs across the UK.

The past three decades have seen a monumental shift in the way we look at and treat plastic products. The public is armed with more and more knowledge each day about the danger of single-use plastics, and the demand for them to be phased out grows stronger with it.

Social value and reducing the environmental impact of our business operations are fundamental principles that sit at the heart of Zest Recycle’s business model. Partnering with Essex Wildlife Trust to support its work and engage with other members to make a positive contribution, was a natural choice for Zest Recycle.

While we live in a world where we’re becoming more aware of the amount of waste we produce than ever, waste generation globally continues to increase with no signs of slowing down.

Zest Recycle are partnering with the IWFM to sponsor the Good Practice Guide to Recycling, Waste & Resource Management.
