Communication is key to implement waste diversion programs
Posted by Eco-Products on Apr 25th 2025
Sourcing, communication, and reporting are all part of the services Eco-Products provides to our partners.
Overview
In 2022 this cancer testing company implemented back-of-house composting with local partner Green Box. In 2024 they added front-of-house composting in the cafeteria.
Challenge
Exact Sciences needed help sourcing the right products as well as communicating to diners about the new program.
Solution
As part of their waste reduction initiative the company worked with Eco-Products distributor EZ Office Products to deploy a full suite of compostable products along with reusables. We are also providing a Product Carbon Footprint report they can incorporate into their company’s ESG program.
Results
Logan Morrow reported that Exact Sciences composted over 22 tons of food in 2023. Since launching post-consumer collection in 2024, they diverted 41 tons of food waste. (Having more employees return to the office and increased food production to meet demand also contributed to the increase.)
