CAWLEYS CLOSES THE LOOP ON COMPOSTABLES


Cawleys Waste Management are delighted to announce a brand new eco partnership with inspirational packaging company, Vegware. Packaging has long been a serious concern and Vegware’s cutlery,


cups, plates, food boxes and general food packaging items are truly compostable, minimising their impact on the planet. However, for the initiative to be truly sustainable, the used Vegware


items need to be transported to the correct composting facility in a completely uncontaminated state. This is where the Cawley’s partnership makes a real impact. Cawleys are now offering a comprehensive collection and transport service to all Vegware clients in the region to ensure a closed-loop approach. Cawleys collects used Vegware packaging from


around Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire and take it to an approved local facility for processing. There, it breaks down into high-quality soil improver in fewer than 12 weeks. “We’re delighted to give our joint customers the

organisations who want to do their best for the environment. “Many people are unaware of the importance of segregating Vegware. It’s a fantastic product but it can only fulfil its true potential if it reaches the composting facility in a completely uncontaminated state. We fulfil this important stage in the cycle by collecting, checking and transporting Vegware materials so that they
