Webinar Running a Profitable MRF in 2026

Learn how FCC automated critical compliance reporting processes – and future-proofed against a changing regulatory landscape:

Manual sampling has hit its ceiling, and the rules are only getting tougher. The EA’s 2024 MF Regulations raised the bar on waste composition reporting, Simpler Recycling is changing what lands on the MRF floor, and the 2027 Deposit Return Scheme will pull high-value PET and cans out of kerbside streams. Every shift has direct operational and revenue implications.

In this webinar, FCC Environment and Greyparrot share how they made the leap to automated compliance reporting. FCC Environment were among the first UK operators to submit Greyparrot’s AI-derived waste composition data directly to the Environment Agency, a landmark moment for the sector. We will also look beyond reporting at how continuous AI monitoring helps facilities adapt to new materials, shifting volumes and changing target objects, so you can future-proof your operation against whatever the regulatory landscape brings next.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why manual sampling can no longer keep pace with the EA’s requirements
  • How AI waste analytics captures continuous, representative composition data across entire operational periods
  • How to implement, calibrate and validate an automated reporting system, with lessons from FCC Environment
  • How to use Greyparrot data for your compliance reporting
  • How to future-proof your facility against a changing regulatory landscape
