Technical Compliance Support

Waste Framework Directive (2008/98/EC)

Bridging the gap between EU regulations and industrial reality.

Operational Strategy

✓ Technical Upskilling: Delivering a 40-hour curriculum to align workforce competencies with emerging EU circular economy standards.
✓ Resource Roadmaps: Moving industrial operations from simple disposal to a verifiable, audit-ready resource management model.
✓ Data-Driven Compliance: Implementing LCA (ISO 14040) to provide technical validation of performance, eliminating greenwashing risk.

Technical Framework

Operations & Lean Manufacturing

Identifying “Muda” (waste) through systematic 5S Lean implementation.

Circular Packaging Design

Compliance with Ecodesign (ESPR) criteria for weight and volume reduction.

Audit-Ready Monitoring

Facility-specific validation of environmental data for regulatory reporting.

Strategic Lead: Dr. Ana Almeida’s technical approach is grounded in specialized training in Operations Management and Lean Manufacturing methodologies, informed by research history at Trinity College Dublin. This framework prioritizes verifiable technical compliance over superficial reporting.
