Here at Econowaste, we are actively moving towards a more sustainable business practice, investing in infrastructure, processes, and our people to expand our effort towards landfill diversion, second-life purposes for waste, recycling capabilities, and material recovery at every touch point of our operations.

One of our main focuses in this space has been developing a landfill diversion program that aims to reduce the amount of wood that ends up going to landfills each year. Timber makes up 12.5 per cent of all waste going to New Zealand’s landfills annually. Here at Econowaste, we can reuse your wood waste the program is designed to utilise the biomass of the diverted wood to replace coal in industrial applications.
