What does TWMA mean in MANAGEMENT

The Total Waste Management Alliance (TWMA) is a cross-sector partnership, based in the UK, which works to encourage best practice and sustainable waste management. The consortium of businesses, charities and public sector organisations seeks to help businesses reduce their environmental impact by changing their attitude towards resource consumption and waste management.

The core principles of TWMA include reducing the amount of resources used and generated through reusing, recycling or repurposing materials; improving efficiency in processes associated with resource recovery; transitioning from a linear economy towards a circular one; innovating for environmental solutions; increasing transparency in reporting; working collaboratively on circular economy solutions; engaging stakeholders in sustainable development; and fostering a culture of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) excellence.

TWMA works with businesses to assess their current operations in order to identify opportunities for improvement and then advises them on how to best achieve their sustainability goals. Through collaborative partnerships with corporate entities, charities, research institutes, local authorities and public sector organisations, TWMA can provide advice on operational improvements that can help create efficiencies and reduce waste production.

TWMA’s core services include setting up an effective waste management system, providing advice on resource efficiency measures so that businesses can optimise their performance while reducing costs, analysing waste streams to identify options for reuse or recycling into new materials or products as well as carrying out implementation projects within an organisation. Additionally, it assists organisations with creating effective policies related to environmental stewardship and provides guidance on obtaining environmentally certified accreditations such as ISO 14001 or ISO 50001 certification.
