What is hazardous waste?
Any waste that may be harmful to human health, the environment or both. Waste is considered to be hazardous when it contains substances or has properties that make it caustic, carcinogenic, corrosive, ecotoxic, flammable, harmful, infectious, irritant, mutagenic, toxic or an oxidising agent.
Why does hazardous waste need special treatment?
Hazardous waste needs special treatment because of its potential to harm people, the environment or both. The management of hazardous waste, including its collection, recycling and disposal, is subject to increasingly stringent and rigorous regulations – namely the Hazardous Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2005.
What does this mean for me and my business?
In practice, it means that the management, collection, treatment and disposal of your hazardous waste is a job for expert professional operators, such as Grundon, which have the right technical and practical experience, expertise and resources.
What happens if my company doesn’t comply?
You could end up fighting a prosecution from the Government’s Environment Agency. Fines can run into the tens of thousands of pounds and cost similar figures in legal fees and time spent out of the business in fighting a prosecution. Those who ignore environmental laws can cause serious pollution to the environment, put communities at risk and undermine legitimate business.
