Annalise Matthews

Annalise Matthews is Waste Management Consultant at Vegware, the global specialist in plant-based compostable packaging. Vegware’s catering disposables are made from renewable, lower carbon or recycled materials, and can all be commercially composted with food waste where accepted. Since 2012 Vegware has been working closely with the waste sector to actively increase client access to commercial composting, including now offering its own collections in some UK regions – Close the Loop. Annalise has direct experience of helping Vegware clients set up new waste systems, and offers insights into the successes, opportunities and challenges for compostable packaging within waste systems.
