Wim Geens has sought throughout his career to contribute towards a sustainable society, be for clients and employees, as well as on a more global scale for local communities and shareholders. Under his guidance, Renewi Belgium and Luxembourg has evolved into a successful waste-to-product company. At the head of Fost Plus since 1 January 2022, Wim Geens is proud of the scale and efficiency of the systems in place, which he’ll continue to develop.
Fost Plus is a non-profit organisation responsible for the selective collection, sorting and recycling of household packaging waste in Belgium. Through organisation, funding and communication, we implement the circular packaging economy. We recycle 95% of the household packaging on the market every year thanks to the efficient collection of glass, paper-cardboard and PMD.
Packaging management has evolved firmly in the direction of sustainable materials and ressource management. To this end, we work closely with all parties concerned: companies, federations, authorities, intermunicipalities, collection, sorting and recycling companies and the general public. Fost Plus was established in 1994 on the instigation of the industry and commerce, and operates in all three regions of the country. By joining the collective system of Fost Plus, packaging companies contribute to a more sustainable society and a cleaner world for all. www.fostplus.be
