Sitemark found ways to offset waste costs by 24% annually
The challenge
For FX Plus sustainability is a key priority which is engrained in all facets of their activities. Across the facilities there are a range of recycling and waste processes where evaluating for best practice was a priority. On hearing of the Sitemark solution FX Plus were keen to see if the benchmarking review could help the facility take its next steps on its recycling and waste journey.
The solution
Sitemark’s independent review provided a pre-determined process which could be relied upon to outline the benefits of the existing provision as well as advise on areas where change and improvement could be undertaken. Through the benchmarking FX Plus could confirm it had identified some excellent opportunities.
