Impetus Waste has selected EHS Data’s Monitor-Pro environmental management system to manage its waste management data.
Impetus waste specializes in the waste management and disposal of industrial, commercial, domestic, hazardous and non-hazardous waste.
Handling an average of about 500,000 metric tons of solid waste per year, with the objective of developing alternative treatments for waste, utilizing their landfill sites is an integral part of Impetus’ long-term plan, the company says.
A Monitor-Pro system will help Impetus to target issue areas, reduce costs and save time in managing information.
EU countries will face tougher recycling targets and a ban on burying recyclable waste in landfills under plans presented by the European Commission.
The proposals are part of the Commission’s Waste Targets Review, which includes updated recycling targets of 70 percent of household waste and 80 percent of packaging waste by 2030. Material-specific targets would be set to gradually increase to reach 90 percent for paper by 2025, and by 2030 targets would be 60 percent for plastics, 80 percent for wood, and 90 percent for ferrous metal, aluminum and glass.
