Why proper waste management is vital for manufacturing businesses

FRIDAY 5th JULY 2024

 More than 40 million tons of industrial waste are produced in the UK each year – with factory waste accounting for a significant amount of this. If you run a factory, it’s your responsibility to ensure all waste generated is stored, removed, and disposed of appropriately.
