The fluctuations reflect the impact of Covid on
the foodservice sector. All the UCO (Used
Cooking Oil) collected goes to making either
biodiesel or bio-liquid fuels. Biodiesel gives a
greenhouse gas emissions saving of over 86%
compared to regular fossil diesel. For more

Waste
management
For the first time we are reporting year on year
incineration percentages, to give greater
transparency on our waste management. We
realise that incineration, whilst creating energy,
is not desirable so we are trying to reduce this.
Waste management highlights include the
ongoing downward tracking of percentage
waste going to landfill; our recycling
performance remains consistent.
