The ZeroWaste Foundation has developed its own method which involves companies being taken along on an expedition in their transition to a circular production method. Awareness, knowledge development and behavioural change are the keywords. From the start, the ‘anatomy of the bin bag’ has turned out to be an extremely popular formula (see below). During the expedition to zero waste the focus is on the four connected issues of people, logistics, technology and raw materials. Processes and behaviour are analysed per issue, goals are set and concrete measures formulated.

Anatomy of the bin bag
The interactive workshops during which a bin bag or container is analysed on the basis of a standard, representative quantity of (safe) commercial waste. The possibilities for sorting valuable raw materials from residual waste and saving options are also discussed. This ‘anatomy of the bin bag’ is a company's next step as it continues the process of habitual behaviour, goals and approach, on the way to achieving a zero waste situation and creating value.

This workshop will run continuously throughout the show hours.
