Dry Mixed Recycling

Maximise your Recycling Efficiency

Boosting recycling rates and reducing costs is both a smart business move and a responsible environmental choice. At Greenzone we believe in simplifying this process by helping you separate Dry Mixed Recycling (DMR) from your general waste.

What is DMR?

DMR comprises of items like plastic bottles, cardboard, paper, tin cans, and aluminium cans. These materials have significant potential for recycling and separating them from your general waste stream is a fundamental step towards a greener and more sustainable operations.

Compliance with the Waste Hierarchy

To make recycling more manageable and ensure responsible waste management, we adhere to the principles of the waste hierarchy. This hierarchy outlines a five-tier approach to waste management: Prevention, Re-use, Recycling, Recovery, and Disposal.

Our Commitment to the hierarchy

Greenzone prioritise the waste hierarchy principles in our services, ensuring that waste is managed in the following order:

Prevention: The best method involves preventing waste generation.

Re-use: If prevention isn’t possible, reusing items is the next preferred option.

Recycling: Materials like those in DMR are recycled to reduce environmental impact.

Recovery: Waste that can’t be recycled is recovered to produce energy or valuable resources.

Disposal: This is the least preferred method and should be the last resort.

Applying the hierarchy with DMR Separation

By separating recyclables from your general waste, you are applying the waste hierarchy effectively. DMR materials are recycled or recovered, aligning with the hierarchy’s principles, and fulfilling a company’s legal requirements.
