The collaboration will see the two companies combining resources, beginning with a four-person Dsposal team joining Resource Futures on a six-month secondment.

Resource Futures and Dsposal have worked together on a number of occasions over the past few years. Current projects include developing a waste data modelling tool for ReLondon and updating the Monitoring and Evaluation tool used across Resource Futures’ community work.

Sophie Walker, co-founder and CEO at Dsposal, discussed the goals of the collaboration: “We’ve built a strong relationship with Resource Futures based on shared values. As a mission driven company, we believe we can really maximise our positive impact by combining our technical expertise with the deep industry knowledge of the Resource Futures team and we’re all excited about what we can achieve together.”

Sam Reeve, CEO of Resource Futures, added: “Just as data is becoming an increasingly powerful enabler in working towards a cleaner, less wasteful society, data innovation and intelligence plays an increasingly crucial part of the work we do at Resource Futures.

“This data gathering expertise is a perfect complement to the technical innovation we will be developing with Sophie, Tom and the rest of the Dsposal team.”

The partnership comes after the announcement of Resource Futures’ recent rebrand, which emphasises its focus on consultancy, communities, and data.

Reeve commented on the new direction of the company: “The way we work is evolving, the type of projects we’re taking on is evolving, and the people and skills we have across the company are evolving too.

“Today, we present a new look and feel for Resource Futures, backed by the dedication, expertise and engagement our clients and partners have grown to trust in our team.”

In November, Resource Futures took over management of Recofloor, the UK’s national commercial waste vinyl collection scheme.
