Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You Need to Know

What is Zero Waste Management?

Zero Waste Management is based on the principles of a regenerative and circular economy — reducing, reusing, recycling, and recovering materials. It supports the Solid Waste Management Rules 2016, mandating management of waste through resource recovery and minimising landfill and incineration use.

Why choose the Zero Waste Programme?

An estimated 40% of a city’s waste is generated by Bulk Waste Generators. Our Programme enables this large volume to move through a system resulting in maximum resource recovery — especially critical for secondary towns like Mysuru that lack adequate waste infrastructure.

How does ZWP support government regulations?

ZWP fits into all waste management regulations — dissuading single-use paper and plastic, aligning to Plastic Waste Management Rules, and supporting the Swachh Bharat Mission that promotes waste reduction and product life-cycle responsibility.

How does it ease investor and ESG expectations?

Investors increasingly prioritise ESG factors. Implementing NMF’s sustainable waste management helps attract CSR funding, enhance long-term profitability, and document measurable environmental outcomes for annual reports and investor disclosures.

What are the livelihood and social benefits?

NMF’s ZWP creates formal employment in composting, biogas operations, dry waste sorting and logistics — with fair wages, ESIC, health insurance, and safe working conditions, prioritising women from marginalised communities.

What are the environmental benefits?

Zero Waste reduces greenhouse gas emissions, decreases landfill use, conserves natural resources, promotes a healthier ecosystem, and generates measurable carbon credits that participating organisations can monetise or report.

How can local governments collaborate?

Governments can support through regulatory enforcement, public awareness campaigns, and co-investment in infrastructure. NMF has active MoUs with Mysuru City Corporation and several Gram Panchayats for co-operative waste management.
