Automotive manufacturing generates large volumes of waste: metal scrap, plastics, packaging, process chemicals, off-spec parts, and more. For decades landfill was the default answer for most of it.
That is changing fast. SES works directly with automotive manufacturers and their supply chains to build sustainable waste programs that meet landfill diversion mandates and reuse 100% of the material, with a documented pathway for every non-hazardous stream your plant produces.
Three forces are turning landfill diversion from a nice-to-have into a condition of doing business across the automotive supply chain.
OEMs have committed to zero waste to landfill across global operations, and those expectations extend directly to their supplier networks. Tier 1s are now required to meet documented sustainability targets, report waste generation data, and demonstrate improvement year over year. Without a credible landfill diversion program, suppliers are carrying contract risk.
The first major update to ISO 14001 in over a decade puts greater emphasis on measurable environmental outcomes, not just having a plan in place. SES provides comprehensive reporting on all materials received, giving customers verifiable documentation that waste was diverted from landfill.
Landfill disposal costs increase every year. Waste streams that have not been optimized cost more than they should, and some of what is going to landfill has real value as alternative fuel, recycled commodities, or beneficial reuse. At SES, our landfill diversion programs do not just solve a compliance problem, they lower costs for our customers.
Every stream that leaves your plant follows the same path. SES picks it up, processes it for beneficial reuse, and documents where it went.
When waste arrives at an SES facility and is processed for beneficial reuse, it is no longer classified as solid waste. Instead, it becomes a new resource with a productive purpose, reducing your regulatory burden and disposal costs.
With six zero waste facilities and a nationwide partner network, SES can pick up and process any waste stream in the United States within 24 hours.
SES transforms diverse waste streams into valuable resources through Alternative Engineered Fuels, Organics Processing, Industrial Recycling, and other Beneficial Reuse applications.
SES provides comprehensive reporting on all materials received, giving our customers verifiable documentation that waste was diverted from landfills.
All material streams are documented for landfill diversion, giving you measurable progress toward your zero waste and sustainability goals.
Every SES customer gets full access to waste diversion reporting and security tracking: chain of custody, photo documentation, certificates of destruction, and 24/7 security monitored facilities.
SES pairs Six Sigma Black Belts with TRUE Certified Zero Waste to Landfill Advisors. That “lean and green” combination brings process discipline to your waste program, uncovering cost savings and efficiency gains.
SES builds the zero waste pathway and supplies the comprehensive documentation and diversion data required for ESG reporting and sustainability credentials like TRUE Zero Waste, UL 2799, and ISO 14001.
