Waste sorting

The operator must follow Isavia's procedures for waste sorting and minimize the waste generated.
Isavia's goal is to achieve a sorted waste rate of 55% by 2025 and 70% by 2030.
One of Isavia's objectives is to focus on good resource utilization, waste minimization, and increased recycling.

Operators are responsible for disposing of waste at the nearest recycling facility and follow the Isavia guidelines for sorting.

Packaging and sorting material for recycling must be clean from food residue etc. Unclean and dirty packaging should be placed in general waste.

Operators are responsible for the disposal of larger items such as furniture, larger electrical appliances, equipment, hazardous waste and other items that fall outside daily operations.

It is prohibited to leave waste or equipment on the floor at the recycling facility.
It is prohibited to store waste or equipment outside the operator's premises.
