Ever wondered how much waste your event is actually generating?
Reducing waste starts with the sourcing of products and items that event organisers and vendors bring to the event.
GO CIRCULAR WITH A ZERO WASTE EVENT CONSULTANT
Corporate events, birthday parties, weddings, group picnics, your nan turning 98?
We’ve got you.
Events can be huge waste generators – imagine all the waste we produce at the gazillions of events around our globe heading to landfill! We’ve joined forces with a number of circular suppliers and waste industry partners if you need a zero waste event strategy and on the day management for that special occasion.
And when it’s over, we’ll help you put your event’s waste to good use through recycling, composting, and donation to the community.
Meals are typically the biggest generators of waste at events.
Food waste can comprise a minimum of 20% – and in some cases up to 60% – of your event waste stream. A surefire way for event planners wanting to reduce food waste is to work with caterers that have food waste reduction strategies and have a team who compost!
CIRQUE @ LOREAL AUSTRALIA X CHARCOAL LANE
When Loreal wanted to go zero waste at the Timber Yard, they called upon indigenous caterers Charcoal Lane + Cirque du Soil to produce these rustic soil bags for a batch of hand stitched composter at their event. We worked with the caterers across compostable serveware and items used in their menu, to make sure all uneaten goodness in the dishes returned to earth.
CIRQUE @ WALES ST PRIMARY SCHOOL FETE
It's school fete season every end of term! We worked with the waste reduction team in the Fete committee to create a hybrid composting system across the fete, where we supplied buckets and signage for decanting in council organic bins, produced a school age appropriate Circular Economy educational pre-recorded session to engage with the local school community and advised on compostable serveware across our Circular supplier networks.
