Recycling is relevant to two parts of the business life-cycle: the materials you buy and the waste you generate. There is a flourishing and growing industry sector in London based on making useful business supplies out of others’ wastes and it’s not just about using recycled paper. These supplies are of at least equal quality to non-recycled supplies and can be cheaper too. At the other end, the waste you generate could in fact be a raw material for another business. For example, one company in London offers a range of grades of recycled aggregates from crushed concrete, brick and other materials recovered from demolition sites, profiting from waste that might otherwise have ended up in landfill.
