Introduction
The wood-fraction analysis is a consultancy report, Lendager Strategy has conducted for a Danish waste disposal company, AffaldPlus. The aim with the analysis is to explore alternative outlets of the waste wood and hereby the possibilities for a higher level of direct reuse and recycling of the wood collected through the recycling centers of the inter-municipal company.
Both in the EU and at a national level, strategic efforts are made towards recycling larger proportions of the produced waste, thereby achieving greater resource efficiency for the benefit of the climate, the environment and the economy. The governmental resource strategy “Denmark Without Waste” from 2013 is being implemented in the municipalities, and hereby they work towards an infrastructure that can direct the waste towards new utilizations for recycling.
The report includes a company analysis, a market analysis and an analysis of potential new outlets, which together constitute a report showing potentials for alternative usages of waste wood that support AffaldPlus’ aim to bring waste higher up the waste management hierarchy.
