Waste Management Advisory
We help facilities understand the waste they generate and manage it through documented, safe routes from the point of generation to final disposal or recovery.
Overview
Facilities generate a range of waste streams, from general and construction waste to hazardous materials such as used oils, chemicals and contaminated residues. Each stream needs to be identified, classified, stored and handed over correctly, with records that show where it went.
Lothan International provides waste management advisory directly. We inventory and classify waste streams, prepare segregation and temporary storage plans, review transport and disposal arrangements, and set up the documentation that tracks each consignment. We also identify practical opportunities to reduce, reuse or recycle.
For clients in Saudi Arabia that need operational waste services such as collection, transport or treatment, these are available through WMES, a Lothan Group company, subject to the requirements applicable in the Kingdom.
