Case Study: TotalWM—Carbon Reduction Goals


 

Total Waste Management (TotalWM) is a metals recovery business specialising in the recycling and recovery of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, general waste and end-of-life vehicles (ELVs)

Monksleigh have been assisting TWM with their carbon and sustainability agenda since 2021 when TWM made a strategic high-level decision to review their corporate direction and set themselves a challenging and ambitious goal to reach net zero with respect to their Scope 1 and 2 emissions in advance of the government 2050 target.

Since this sustainability shift change Monksleigh has been supporting and guiding TWM on their carbon reduction journey, supporting projects that drive the business aim, including the transition of plant and machinery to more sustainably fuelled alternatives, drafting and publishing their annual Carbon Reduction Plan and developing their ESG and longer-term aspirations towards their social and environmental objectives.

These actions have so far have resulted in a 12.3% decrease on the amount of CO2 eq emitted per tonne of material managed and led to them being a finalist in the 2023 Awards for Excellence in Recycling and Waste Management and a Winner at the prestigious National Recycling Awards (NRAs) later that same year.

Quote from TotalWM:

‘Monksleigh were quick to understand our aspirations and come up with proactive and practical suggestions to help support our business development and ESG objectives. These submissions have made a real difference to reaching our environmental and sustainability goals and in turn Monksleigh has become part of our ‘go to’ support team.’
