Hitting send on our favourite release of the year: Envac’s Sustainability Report 2025 is now live.

This year’s story is really about waste as critical infrastructure. As cities struggle with growing waste volumes, climate risks and shrinking space, we see how moving waste underground and designing for circularity from the start reshapes what’s possible above ground: cleaner air, safer streets, more room for homes and green places.

The report tracks our progress through an ESG lens:
- how our systems help cities cut emissions and energy use,
- how automation and design protect the people working with and living next to waste, and
- how a stronger governance framework – from Code of Conduct to supplier standards and whistleblowing – turns values into everyday practice.

Most of all, the report is a reflection of the teams across Envac who treat sustainability not as a chapter at the end, but as the brief from the beginning.

Turning Plastic Waste into Climate Action: What Stockholm Can Teach the World

People everywhere have the chance to make a real difference for the climate, starting with how we handle plastic packaging. Envac’s collaborative project in Stockholm is one example of what’s possible: improved plastic sorting and collection can help cut CO₂ emissions dramatically, by turning what used to be waste into a valuable resource.

When plastic is burned instead of being recycled, it becomes a hidden contributor to climate change. In Stockholm, mixed waste is estimated to generate around 325,000 tonnes of CO₂ every year, largely driven by plastic products that should have been recycled instead. Plastic packaging alone accounts for roughly 60 per cent of the CO₂ emissions from the treatment of household waste.

At the same time, plastic is a global challenge. Only about 9 per cent of all plastic waste ever produced has been recycled; the rest has been incinerated, landfilled or leaked into nature.

If all plastic packaging in Stockholm households were sorted correctly, residents could cut carbon dioxide emissions by 40,000 tonnes annually. This is equivalent to half of the fossil-based emissions generated by household waste. Now, an innovative project in Hammarby Sjöstad is demonstrating how this can become a reality.

By combining smarter collection and sorting technologies with clear communication and user-friendly infrastructure, cities everywhere can follow Stockholm’s lead. When residents, city authorities and technology providers pull in the same direction, plastic stops being an end-of-life problem and becomes part of a circular resource flow.

London is growing FAST. But can our waste management keep up? 🚦

With over 18 million tonnes of waste produced every year and recycling rates still lagging, London’s traditional waste collection simply cannot meet the demands of a modern, high-density city.

Our automated, underground waste collection systems, already making a difference at Barking Riverside and Wembley Park, are helping London to:
• Reduce traffic and collection disruptions
• Make recycling straightforward and accessible for everyone
• Keep streets cleaner and neighbourhoods healthier

But this is about more than just technology. It’s about giving every Londoner - residents, businesses, and developers - the opportunity to take responsibility for a cleaner city. With Envac, everyone can play their part in efficient, effective waste handling, wherever they live or work.

The latest New Towns Taskforce report highlights the need for smart, resilient solutions. Envac’s systems are already demonstrating how easy and reliable waste management can be. Imagine a London where waste is out of sight, recycling is second nature, and everyone has a stake in a cleaner city.

👇 Let’s connect and make London a leader in smart, responsible waste management - for, and with, everyone who calls it home.

What happens when a city protects its past and invests in its future all at once? The City of Bergen has done just that by adopting Envac's automated waste collection system, and the results are turning heads globally. is preserving its historic streets-once strained by heavy waste trucks-while eliminating fire risks to its iconic timber buildings. At the same time, the city is cutting emissions, improving hygiene, and building infrastructure that will serve generations to come. The has featured Bergen as a model for smart, sustainable urban development.

We're proud to partner with forward-thinking cities like Bergen-and even prouder to see their stories recognised on the world stage.
