This legislation relates to the mandatory separation of kitchen waste and food scraps for businesses. At Iris, we put your well-being and peace of mind first, which is why we would like to inform you about these new regulations and provide solutions that are perfectly suited to your specific needs.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"From 2024, every farm is required to produce biogas and compost\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vzUd-SMg01I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As your Trusted Partner, we understand that this change may affect the way you handle your waste, unless your business is already compliant. That's why we offer flexible and customized solutions that not only comply with the new regulations, but also fit your business needs perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our extensive offerings include garbage can and bag placement, customizable collection frequencies, variable appearance, custom sizes, and much more. By separating kitchen waste and food scraps, you not only enjoy the ecological benefits, such as reducing food waste and reducing incinerated residual waste, but also contribute to the production of compost and biogas. This results in green energy generated for families and businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iris.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/vuilbakken-1-1024x577.png\" alt=\"Various waste bins with green lids and recycle symbol.\" class=\"wp-image-2425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iris.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/vuilbakken-1-1024x577.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.iris.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/vuilbakken-1-500x282.png 500w, https:\/\/www.iris.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/vuilbakken-1-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/www.iris.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/vuilbakken-1-1536x865.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.iris.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/vuilbakken-1.png 1640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are committed to guiding you through this transition worry-free.
