WASTE DATA MANAGEMENT

Waste Management Reporting: Automate, Unify, and Streamline Your Data

GLYNT.AI’s sustainability data system automates every waste workflow — from file capture to audit-ready, traceable, structured data — saving your team countless hours

WHY IT MATTERS

Hidden fees, expanding regulations, steep penalties

Waste data is more valuable than ever before for reporting, compliance and efficient business operations.

Corporate reporting

Scope 3 reporting and audit requirements are expanding, including Scope 3 Category 5: Waste generated in operations.

Safety regulations

Reporting on the tracking and handling of e-waste, infectious waste and more is required.

Packaging regulations

One data set, ready for global reporting.

Expense management

Waste disposal costs are rapidly rising, far outstripping inflation in many places.

PACKAGING

Product packaging reporting and reduction regulations are expanding worldwide

Regulations — including the Producer Packaging and Waste Regulation (PPWR) in the EU and the Extended Produce Responsibility (EPR) in the US — are rapidly expanding. GLYNT.AI’s sustainability data system manages this complexity across your global supply chain, including varied reporting requirements by locale.

Producers* must file different reports in each locale and reduce waste across their entire global packaging supply chain

*The producer is the entity that introduces packaging into the local market.

Comply by locale

GLYNT.AI’s customized data and reporting meets requirements by locale.

Avoid steep fines

Be ready for any question with GLYNT.AI’s accurate data and audit-ready reports.

Rely on a single source of truth

Get finance-grade waste data from one unified, compliant system.

WHY IT’S HARD

Waste data comes from everywhere, in every format

Waste data arrives from a wide range of sources: internal systems, EHS platforms, utility bills, business invoices, landlords and more. And every file has to be mapped to the right waste taxonomy for its locale.

GLYNT.AI waste data flow: hauler invoices, EHS files and utility bills mapped to waste taxonomies and converted from volume to weight.

HOW IT WORKS

One system standardizes waste data from every hauler and format

GLYNT.AI turns messy, inconsistent files from every local hauler — in any format — into unified, structured waste data you can use.

Frequently asked

Learn how GLYNT.AI standardizes and reports your waste data.

What is waste management reporting?

Waste management reporting is the tracking and disclosure of how much waste an organization generates, by waste type and weight, and how that waste is disposed of or diverted. It feeds Scope 3 Category 5 emissions, packaging (EPR) filings and safety regulations. GLYNT.AI automates waste management reporting by turning hauler invoices, EHS exports and utility bills from any locale into audit-ready waste data.

Why is waste data so much harder to standardize than energy or water data?

Raw input files for waste data come from many systems: IoT sensors, utility bills, hauler invoices, EHS systems, internal logs and more. And there is no standard format. Plus a waste shorthand is often used — like CY, G, and Gal. GLYNT.AI is a purpose-built system that “speaks waste.”

How do you handle hazardous waste specifically?

Each waste type is tracked separately, including hazardous waste, infectious waste, e-waste and more, enabling full regulatory and safety compliance. GLYNT.AI maps each waste type and details to the correct codes, disposal routes and certificates of destruction.

Our hauler bills by volume, but we report by weight. How does that work?

Volume-to-weight conversions are built into GLYNT.AI. GLYNT.AI tracks both weight and volume, so you can also monitor hauler conversion factors for accurate billing.

If we switch waste haulers, does our reporting stay consistent?

Yes. GLYNT.AI’s change management system automatically detects new vendors and we have a standard approval flow so that your reporting is always accurate and verified.

Can GLYNT.AI process waste invoices that aren't in English?

Yes. Non-English languages and non-Latin character sets are handled in the GLYNT.AI system. For example, one GLYNT.AI customer has waste files in 14 languages on four continents.

How does GLYNT.AI handle waste summary bills?

GLYNT.AI unpacks summary bills and long tables into detail of waste type pickups by service address, providing a consistent aggregated record of the weight of waste by type during the reporting period.

Does GLYNT.AI handle waste codes and reports from outside the US?

Yes. GLYNT.AI is familiar with the waste taxonomies — there are 39! — used around the world. The waste codes are extracted from the raw input files or are added to your waste data as needed.

Can we use GLYNT.AI’s waste data services to increase our Primary Data Share?

Yes. Primary Data Share is the percent of your reported data that comes from actual data (i.e. is not estimated). GLYNT.AI processes all of your messy waste files so that you get actual data. This transforms waste from a reporting category that is often estimated to one that has actual data.

Why is it important to report waste by waste type and weight every month?

Monthly reporting by waste type and weight shows stakeholders that you know your waste streams and have the data system in place to actively manage waste costs, including landfill avoidance. GLYNT.AI delivers this level of detail from every hauler and locale.
