Milgro-NVC Workshop “A different view on waste”

This unique workshop is inspiring the participants with the Milgro view on waste and the transition required to generate more value from resource materials by fighting wastage. NVC manager Knowledge Development and Projects, Ger Standhardt will explain additionally how important the implementation of the ISO standards on packaging and environment is. He will address prevention, reuse and the three legally required methods for recovery: composting, material recycling and energy recovery.
Last but not least the participants will be actively working on the physical separation of waste under supervision of an experienced tutor in the Wastelab, the knowledge, analysis and innovation centre at Milgro. The ‘different view on waste’ is obtained there in a very special manner: the ‘anatomy of the waste bag’ as starting point for reducing wastage of source materials.

The workshop takes place on Friday September 5th, 2014. The programme starts at 13.00 uur, takes about 3½ hours and is concluded with an informal drink. Location is the Milgro office in Rotterdam, where mission and vision of Milgro have been implemented in a unique manner.
