Beyond Zero Waste: Building a Circular Waste Ecosystem

Zero waste commitments have become a common sustainability goal, but organizations are recognizing that diversion rates alone do not tell the full story. To achieve long-term environmental and business value, companies must move beyond waste management toward a more holistic circular resource strategy.

Join UL Solutions as we explore how you can build a circular waste ecosystem by improving waste data quality, strengthening governance, identifying reduction and reuse opportunities, and implementing measurable performance indicators. We will share practical insights into the waste maturity journey, common implementation challenges and approaches for establishing credible and transparent sustainability claims.

Whether you are just beginning your waste reduction efforts or looking to advance an existing program, this webinar will provide actionable guidance for transforming waste from a disposal challenge into a strategic sustainability opportunity.

We will share how you can:

• Assess your organization's current waste maturity and identify opportunities for improvement.  
• Develop a circular waste strategy that prioritizes reduction, reuse, diversion and resource recovery.  
• Improve waste data collection, governance and reporting practices to support informed decision-making.
• Understand the role of independent verification and transparent reporting in supporting credible waste and circularity claims
