A fundamental part of iReuse’s commitment to the environment includes our role as an Endorser of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) innovative WasteWise program, the country’s first national voluntary solid waste reduction program.

As a WasteWise Endorser, iReuse encourages organizations to reduce municipal solid waste through waste prevention, recycling, and buying or manufacturing recycled products. iReuse has helped companies save hundreds of thousands of dollars in purchasing costs and waste disposal fees by reducing, reusing, and recycling solid waste materials.

The WasteWise program has a broad and varied membership that reflects the makeup of corporate America.  More than 1,100 organizations have joined WasteWise since 1994, demonstrating their leadership in finding cost-effective ways to reduce waste.  Partners include many of the country’s leading manufacturers, retailers, and service firms, spanning more than 50 different industry sectors. The program also services federal, state and local governments, tribes, and other non-corporate institutions.

Becoming a WasteWise Endorser is another example of name of iReuse’s continued commitment to helping businesses reduce their financial costs and environmental impact.
