Waste Management Measurement & Benchmarking

The InVision2050 Meter Reading App also enables Hotels to measure both their unsorted and separated waste across all categories including recyclables.  This is achieved through container definitions and virtual meters associated with the waste separation and collection areas.

These include:

  • Food Waste
  • Unsorted General Waste
  • Dry Waste
  • Hazardous/e-Waste
  • Recyclable Waste
    • Paper & Cardboard
    • Plastics
    • Aluminium Cans
    • Metal
    • Glass
    • Used Cooking Oil

Waste metrics are defined specific to each Hotel depending on their current or planned waste sorting and collection processes.

Full support for waste container collection with actual or estimated weights

Measurement can be by either kg or m3 and benchmarked against either occupied rooms, guest nights or revenue

Reading frequencies supported include daily, fortnightly, monthly or ad-hoc

All waste data is seamlessly integrated into the InVision2050 Power BI Analytics system with detailed reporting and dashboard analytics available across all metrics. 

Reporting includes all readings, consolidated consumption and GHG emissions based on international co-efficients including DEFRA and/or the GHG Protocol.

Total waste measurement also supports annual reporting to both the DJSI and GRI submission requirements.
