Industrial, Commercial and Institutional Surplus Materials Exchanges
One company’s waste can be another company’s raw material
Every day industry produces waste that could be reused or recycled. In fact, industry produces 42 times more waste every year than residences.
Waste exchanges help close the “Industrial Loop”. Our Industrial Waste Exchange Service facilitates business to business (b2b) exchanges of surplus materials and helps reduce the overall amount of waste generated.
Metrics
Our websites measure and report on the benefits of an industrial waste exchange at every step. We provide exchange managers and participating companies with detailed reports such as tonnage of waste diverted and the associated reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, dollar savings in waste disposal by providers of material, and the avoided costs for purchase of new raw materials by recipients.
Triple Bottom Line
Many businesses report on the triple bottom line economics, environmental and social achievements. We provide the kind of information your board and CEO, accountants, program funders and participating companies need to make good decisions about supporting and participating in the program.
