At Normec OWS, we specialize in supporting industries and government agencies in realizing the best solution for the end of life of their products or waste streams and reaching their sustainability goals. The optimal solution generally depends on many different factors and nuances, and needs to take all possibilities into account, from recycling to biodegrading in industrial or home composting, soil, fresh water, or marine environment/seawater. We would be happy to apply our expertise and (bio)degradability testing capabilities to help you establish the best end-of-life solution for your product. The industries listed here are not exhaustive, so please feel free to contact us to see how we can be of help!
