Global resource management company Veolia is launching an online trading bioresources platform in the UK that makes it easier to sell and buy organic resources.
Designed to save users time and money, BioTrading will provide businesses the opportunity to better leverage the 100 million tonnes of raw materials and biofuels we produce every year.
The first of its kind, Veolia’s new BioTrading website will be a sales and auction marketplace that connects buyers to the rest of the value chain and finds the best deal for their organic resource needs, recycling them into new products or green energy.
Unlike other parts of the economy, there is no price comparison or trading platform for organic resources - buyers and sellers are currently wasting time and money navigating a confusing marketplace, Veolia said.
The service is aimed at anyone who has resources, or requires them, including farming, water, construction, food and drink, anaerobic digestion and the biodiesel and bioethanol industry.
A wide range of resources will be made available on the website including food waste, food for redistribution, industrial organic by-products, agricultural wastes, biodiesel and bioethanol residues, sewage and industrial sludge and wood. To ease logistics buyers can also make use of compliant haulage services if required.
By dealing directly, the website will enable sellers get a good price for their product and gain maximum value from their waste and process by-products, and buyers will benefit from having access to a central platform boasting transparent and fair prices.
Commenting on the launch of the website, Raquel Carrasco, Organics and Technology Director at Veolia UK said:
“Our new BioTrading website is the missing link for the UK’s organic resources and represents a real step forward in innovation. By operating as an agile trading platform it is a financial and environmental win-win for both buyer and seller. For the UK, it means more waste can be turned back into resources, boosting sustainability, delivering value and promoting a more circular economy.”
