END OF LIFE SERVICES FOR MERCHANDISING AND INVENTORY

Sorting of end-of-life merchandise for sustainable recycling

Give Your Merchandise and Displays a Second Life with WALTER

Merchandising items, visual props, and unsold inventory often face a short lifecycle, leading to waste and a significant environmental impact if improperly disposed of.
Many companies struggle with these challenges:

  • Short Life Cycles: Merchandise displays and props frequently rotate, resulting in a high turnover of materials.
  • Complex Materials: Mixed materials (glass, plastic, metals) complicate recycling, often resulting in landfill waste.
  • Lack of Proper Disposal Channels: Without robust end-of-life solutions, recyclable materials may end up in landfills, causing environmental harm.

If your brand is committed to sustainability, managing these items responsibly is essential and WALTER is here to help.
