Beauty without the waste backlog for a leading cosmetics manufacturer
Behind every beauty product is a production process that generates waste. Effluent from cosmetics manufacturing can contain oils, emulsifiers, fragrances and other residues that require appropriate classification and treatment before disposal. Without a suitable disposal route, accumulating waste can create additional storage, compliance and production pressures.
When health and beauty manufacturer Amirose London required a reliable disposal route for effluent wet washings from its production line, ASCO assessed the waste, identified suitable treatment options and coordinated collection through to final disposal, ensuring a safe, cost-efficient solution through early planning through to safe disposal.

Approach
We assessed samples of the waste from Amirose London's production line, then evaluated six disposal sites before selecting a treatment route that met the waste requirements and the client’s budget.
We then coordinated tankered collections from site and managed transport through to treatment, providing a single point of contact throughout the disposal process.

The established disposal route has provided Amirose London with a consistent way to manage effluent wet washings. By coordinating waste assessment, treatment selection, collection and transport, ASCO has removed the need for the client to manage separate elements of the disposal process.
- More than 650 tonnes of effluent wet washings disposed of
- 26 loads collected, transported and safely disposed of
- The most cost-efficient treatment route established through rigorous assessment
