With technology in today’s world, things always seem to be changing. Recycling is no different. These ever-changing recycling trends seem to be the future of office recycling in 2022.

Technology Improves Efficiency

Recycling has always been complicated in that it requires sorting into different types of materials. But recycling facilities can improve efficiency as technology improves. Technology can be used to separate materials out, or it can also be used to improve efficiency in mapping out recycling pickup routes and predicting waste volumes per business or even citywide, which can, in turn, help recycling companies plan and organize to improve efficiency in this area as well.

Sustainable Packaging Solutions

How products are packaged has been a topic of discussion for a while now. Now, the future seems to be moving towards more reusable recycling solutions such as compostable packaging, reusable packaging, or refillable containers. The number of innovations is always rising in order to support circular recycling instead of simply linear office recycling.  

Environmental Regulations

As recycling and sustainability become more of a hot topic across the globe, recycling rules and regulations may also begin to shift and change. Laws passed just last year pertain to both produced responsibility to singer user bins, and more are sure to come down the pipeline. The pressure to help companies think about the future becoming more sustainable means more regulations to push the industry in the right directions.
