This guide analyses the key changes set to shape the waste management sector in 2026.
Taking a practical approach, it explores the impact of artificial intelligence in treatment facilities, document automation and data-driven management, as well as the shift from viewing waste as disposal to recognising it as a resource.
It also examines the evolution of the European regulatory framework, the growing demands of sustainability reporting (CSRD and ESRS), the strengthening role of the initial producer, and the increasing importance of traceability and digitalisation.
A publication designed to help understand how waste management is becoming an integral part of corporate strategy, operational efficiency and business competitiveness.
