Yes. We support educational institutions including the University of Amsterdam (UvA) and Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (HvA). We understand the challenges created by large and constantly changing campus populations, fluctuating waste volumes, specialist waste streams and locations in busy urban environments. Through operational management, reliable data insights and tailored improvement programmes, we help institutions gain more control over costs, service quality and sustainability performance.

Improving waste separation requires a combination of clear communication and the right operational setup. Waste stations need to be easy to find and understand, collection methods must match the materials being separated and every stream needs a suitable processing route. We analyse waste data and on-site behaviour to identify where contamination occurs and where valuable materials are being lost. We then help improve bin placement, communication, collection and processing. 

We use waste and service data to identify trends, understand recurring patterns and anticipate changes in demand around introduction weeks, examinations, events and holiday periods. This helps us determine when locations need additional capacity or more frequent collections and when services can be scaled back or up. Our large and flexible partner network allows us to adapt collection frequencies, capacity and services to the actual needs of each campus. We continuously evaluate the best setup based on sustainability, operational reliability and cost, helping prevent overflowing containers, unnecessary collections and avoidable expenses.

Yes. We assess collection routes, vehicle movements, collection frequencies and local access restrictions to identify more efficient logistics solutions. Depending on the location, this can include bundling collections, using waste hubs, deploying zero-emission vehicles or exploring collection over water. Through smarter logistics, one educational institution reduced logistics-related CO₂ emissions by 42.9% in three years, avoiding 11,126 kilograms of CO₂ emissions.

Yes. Educational institutions can generate many different waste streams, ranging from packaging, food waste and confidential paper to tissues, laboratory materials and hazardous waste. We help determine the right collection, documentation, partner and processing route for each stream.

Our platform brings all your waste data, invoices and processing information together in one place. This gives you a clear overview of waste volumes, costs, separation rates, processing methods and environmental impact across your entire organisation. You can analyse the data by campus, building, faculty, waste stream and partner. These insights help you identify improvement opportunities, make data-driven decisions and steer more effectively towards your cost, operational and sustainability goals. With structured and traceable data in one central platform, your teams work from the same reliable source of information while supporting internal, compliance and various reporting requirements.

Yes. We assess your current partner landscape and look at what already works well. Where existing partners perform, we can integrate them into the operating model. Where there are gaps in service, cost, reporting or compliance, we help improve or replace them based on your needs.
