Waste separation
in hospitality
Sustainable practices and waste separation are essential in the hospitality sector. Recycling helps protect the environment, saves energy, and lowers costs. With highly recyclable waste streams, hospitality businesses can easily take steps toward circular and responsible operations.
Waste separation in hospitality
The hospitality industry produces a diverse mix of waste, including:
- Organic kitchen waste (food scraps, coffee grounds)
- Oils and cooking fats
- Glass and paper
- Plastic and cardboard
- General waste
Many of these materials contain valuable raw materials that can be recycled and reused. By separating waste properly, businesses reduce the need for new resources, lower energy consumption, and minimize the amount of residual waste sent to incinerators. A well-organized waste management system also strengthens a company’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategy.

Efficient waste separation in hospitality
Identify your business’s main waste streams
Most hospitality waste is highly suitable for sustainable processing. Assess which waste streams are most common in your business and choose a waste collection system that matches your needs.
Reduce food waste
One of the most effective ways to improve waste management in hospitality is by tackling food waste. Wasted food not only harms the environment but also leads to unnecessary costs. Simple strategies can help reduce waste.
Choose the right waste bins and place them strategically
By mapping out your waste streams, you can determine where specific waste bins are needed.
- Outdoor terraces should have bins with compartments for common waste types like plastic bottles and food packaging.
- Bars and kitchens may require separate bins for glass, organic waste, and used cooking oil.
- Restrooms might need bins for paper towels and hygiene waste.
Well-placed recycling bins make it easier for staff and guests to dispose of waste correctly, leading to a cleaner and more organized environment.
