Waste and plastic
At Frode Laursen, we aim to use as little plastic as
possible. In 2023, we therefore replaced all our
15-micrometre machine stretch wrap with a thinner
10-micrometre product. At the same time, we reduced
our consumption of stretch wrap, which meant that
our machine stretch wrap consumption decreased
by 24%, or 23,826 kg.

Environment
Frode Laursen’s logistics centres produce large
quantities of plastic and cardboard waste, which
we go to great lengths to recycle in the best possible
way. Therefore, we systematically sort our waste at
all our logistics centres, and are constantly working
to improve our waste sorting and recycling. The aim
is for all waste to be recycled. In 2023, a smaller part
of our waste was sent to incineration, and a larger
part was sent to biological recycling. We generated
7,038 tonnes of waste in 2023, of which 75% was
recycled, 21% was sent for incineration, and 4% was
not recycled. The goal is still to recycle all waste, and
thus reduce the amount of waste which is sent for
incineration or which cannot be recycled.
