I believe that if people put their minds together and think about how waste can be utilised in our daily lives, they would discover new ways to turn it into something useful. Young people, in particular, need to change their mindset and become more entrepreneurial.

@natalia Very interesting, but do you know what they do with the chemical waste from the laboratory? How is it recycled/treated?

I believe companies should take more responsibility by investing in cleaner technologies and improving their waste management systems. Using green chemistry principles could also make a big difference, because it focuses on reducing waste from the beginning of the production process. In the long term, sustainability should be a priority for the entire chemical sector. In our case in Brilen Novapet we invest a lot in sustainability and green energy, making it a key priority in our strategy. We focus on reducing waste, improving energy efficiency, and using renewable energy sources to minimize our environmental impact.

In the warehouse, since the samples are wine, they can be disposed of down the sink. In contrast, chemical products must be disposed of in their corresponding container waste drum. Glass bottles are taken to the appropriate container the glass recycling bin.
