Workshop: Waste management, a step closer to a better environment

Reduce, reuse, and recycle. Waste management is an increasing concern for any business. More waste generated means higher operating costs and lower profits. Stockpiling waste is not a viable solution and destroying it is unsatisfactory due to the resulting emissions and polluting residues.
