Background

Established in November 2002, Wasteserv is responsible for organizing, managing and operating integrated systems for waste management, including integrated systems for minimization, collection, transport, sorting, reuse, utilization, recycling, treatment and disposal of solid and hazardous waste. The company also operates integrated systems for the export of wate to destinations outside the Maltese islands.

‘Creating Resources from Waste’ is at the heart of everything we do and every decision we take.

Education is at the very core of Wasteserv’s endeavors, so it is important that we have a clear path for communication. Our ultimate aim is to encourage people to make waste management an integral lifestyle practice, and we believe that our objectives will help us to get our message across in a strong and defined manner.

Wasteserv recognises and follows international principles which include:

• Sustainable development;
• The proximity principle and self-sufficiency;
• The precautionary principle;
• The ‘polluter pays’ principle;
• That any environmental damage that might occur should, as a first option, be rectified at source;
• The waste hierarchy;
• The application of the Best Practicable Environmental Option (BPEO);
• Producer responsibility.

Wasteserv is committed towards establishing and maintaining an innovative waste management infrastructure that also protects the environment and society. Through ongoing communication the company aims to promote waste minimization and recycling, while also encouraging all stakeholders to take pride in being committed to implementing sustainable waste management methods.
