Municipality of Amsterdam and geoFluxus give businesses in the region free access to sustainable waste management with the Afvalprofiel

Research by TUDelft shows that 60% of all waste in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Region can be processed more sustainably. The City of Amsterdam and Port of Amsterdam, in cooperation with geoFluxus, offer all companies in the region access to their individual Waste Profile with insights to find better alternatives for their waste streams.

Although there is increasing demand for sustainable products and services, companies are struggling to make decisions that are good for themselves and the environment.

When it comes to waste, companies are often unaware of the impact and potential of their waste streams, despite their willingness to become more sustainable. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in particular often do not have the resources to make this a priority.Companies trying to reuse and trade waste often encounter bureaucratic, logistical and financial complications. The existing network of waste collectors, waste brokers and waste processors is intransparent and does not facilitate the required transition from waste to resource.There is a clear need for tailored, company-specific information that supports the company's entire sustainability and circular economy decision-making process
