Why did you hire Noventiz to provide on-site waste disposal services?
Before working with Noventiz, we organised waste disposal with various providers and internal resources, which was not only time-consuming but also a major logistical challenge. We were therefore dissatisfied with the situation and hired Noventiz in 2012 to optimise our waste disposal.
We were very impressed by the personalised service and proactive support provided by our personal contact, Mr. Welter.He knows our processes inside out and helps us to implement efficient and sustainable solutions.

Working with Noventiz has greatly simplified our waste disposal processes. Thanks to centralised support and reliable organisation, we can concentrate fully on our core business – safe in the knowledge that all legal requirements are being met.
How did the partnership started?
The first step was to analyse our waste disposal situation.. This involved reviewing waste types, disposal frequencies and legal requirements in order to identify potential for optimisation.
Based on this analysis, Noventiz provided us with a tailor-made concept that integrates efficient collection and separation strategies. Our goal was to simplify processes, save time and ensure legally compliant waste disposal.
The concept was then implemented with the support of Noventiz.
What exactly does Noventiz do for you?
Noventiz handles all waste disposal for us at seven locations, ensuring efficient and legally compliant waste management. This includes monthly emptying of grease traps to ensure the proper disposal of greasy waste water. In addition, Noventiz takes care of the disposal of waste wood, glass, plastic film and mixed packaging, which are collected regularly and disposed of in accordance with legal requirements. Food and food waste is also disposed of twice a week.
Noventiz also represents us in dealings with the local environmental authorities.
This saves us valuable internal resources and allows us to concentrate fully on our core business.
How has Noventiz improved your situation?
Noventiz provides a central point of contact who not only has expertise but also knows us and our processes inside out. This is efficient and saves time and capacity. The collaboration has saved us time and money.
Another bonus is transparency and reliability: we know for sure that all regulations are being complied with and that our operations are running smoothly. Personal support and proactive communication ensure that we comply with legal requirements, such as the Commercial Waste Ordinance, and that we continually review and adapt our concepts. In addition, structured waste disposal has noticeably improved our operational sustainability.
How important is sustainability at Andronaco?
Sustainability is a central component of our corporate strategy. In addition to environmentally friendly disposal, we are increasingly focusing on regional products and have an organic range in our assortment. We are currently working on a comprehensive sustainability report to make our progress even more measurable. We have set ourselves clear goals that we are pursuing in the long term.
How would you rate your collaboration with Noventiz?
We are completely satisfied and would recommend Noventiz 100%. We particularly appreciate the personalised support, close customer relations and proactive approach to new challenges. Thanks to our long-standing partnership in on-site waste disposal, we have a reliable partner at our side who supports us at all times. Our positive experience convinced us to also entrust Noventiz with our packaging licensing – and we couldn’t be happier with the collaboration.
