IMPLEMENTING:Sustainable Resource Management in Your Business
• What? - Taking action to optimise the
sustainable use of materials
• Real Results:“We changed waste from a cost of ~£80k a year to a co-product that we sell for an annual income in excess of £200k, this action has acted to meet the supply-chain goals of our key customers.”
Andrew Maguire, MIEMA, Kepak
RES: Efficiency & Effectiveness

• What? - Maintaining a reliable supply of key
materials
• Real Issues:“Without a clear view of supply risks and an active and ambitious strategy to manage those risks, businesses will be increasingly vulnerable to price volatility, supply chain disruption and business continuity risks”
Susanne Baker, AIEMA, EEF
RES: Security
