- Need to maintain high compliance standards under strict regulation.
- Balancing disposal costs with sustainability targets.
-
Requirement for full traceability to satisfy regulators and stakeholders.
THE OUTCOMES
- £1.2m saved annually compared to landfill/incineration.
- Year-round outlet security ensured no stockpiling or downtime.
- Enhanced sustainability reporting through closed-loop recycling back into agriculture.
- Stronger relationships with local farming communities.
