Waste flows

The diagram below shows the distribution of waste flows generated by Unica in 2021. The waste flows for certain branches are unknown. They have therefore been omitted from the total volume. A breakdown of the waste materials is provided each year. Construction site waste cannot be included in this breakdown, because Unica is not responsible for its disposal. Waste flows are processed in accordance with Dutch standards.
