Description
Green-works are dedicated to changing the way society thinks about waste by demonstrating that it is an opportunity; an asset and valuable resource for others.
Through their one-stop office furniture collection service, they offer a viable alternative to landfill that enables corporates and government bodies to revise their office furniture waste streams to:
- actively protect the environment
- make quality office items available at low cost to schools, charities, community
groups, hospitals and small businesses across the UK
- create valuable employment and training opportunities in deprived areas
across the UK
Their zero landfill policy ensures that even damaged items do not go to waste. They are remanufactured into a range of new products, with several designs being patented.
Green-works also donate recyclable material to schools, colleges, film groups and local artists to save them precious resources and raise the profile of regeneration. They also donate furniture to developing countries in including an orphanage in Romania, a dentistry hospital in the Sudan and a range of NGO projects in Ghana and the Gambia.
Their consultancy arm, Green-Works Consulting, offers waste audits, waste minimisation schemes, compliance checks, recycling equipment and accredited training.
