Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Waste Neutrality programs
While carbon offsetting focuses on greenhouse gas emissions, Materials Neutrality addresses physical waste streams. We recover and process equivalent amounts of post-consumer waste materials from the environment, creating tangible, measurable impact on waste pollution.
Our programs follow internationally recognized third-party verification standards as well as our own rigorous internal built standards. We provide full chain-of-custody documentation and transparent reporting for all collection and processing activities.
The timeline varies based on volumes and program complexity. Our standard suggested timeframes are designed to create meaningful impact - typically 4-8 months from assessment to certification, allowing sufficient time for proper collection and verification.
Collection activities are conducted in regions where we currently operate, as we focus on building deep, sustainable impact in our established networks. While we cannot accommodate specific geographic preferences outside our operational areas, sustainability and leadership have no boundaries - brands from anywhere across the globe can participate in our programs. Our focus is on creating meaningful impact through last-mile operations and dignified job creation in the communities where we work.
Certified brands receive official Materials Neutral logos, comprehensive impact reports, marketing assets, case study development, and ongoing communication support to effectively communicate your sustainability achievements.
