Corporate Sustainability
Your employees want to sort correctly. They just don't know how.
Ridright gives every employee at every facility an instant, accurate answer to 'where does this go?' — configured to your building's actual programs, not a generic recycling guide.
The Challenge
What sustainability managers are up against
Corporate sustainability teams invest real resources in workplace waste programs — bins, infrastructure, vendor agreements, certifications. But program performance depends on employee behavior, and employee behavior depends on whether people can easily find the right answer in the moment they need it. When they can't, contamination fills the gap between intention and action.
Generic recycling education doesn't account for how different each facility is
Your office in Denver has different accepted materials than your distribution center in Atlanta. A company-wide recycling poster in the breakroom doesn't tell employees in either location what their specific bins actually accept. So they guess, and guessing usually means contaminating.
Contamination is undermining diversion numbers you're expected to report
One contaminated load can get rejected by the processor. Multiply that across facilities and your actual diversion rate is significantly lower than what your programs are designed to achieve. The problem isn't the bins — it's that employees don't know what goes in them.
You're expected to show ESG progress without reliable waste behavior data
Investor reporting, board updates, and sustainability disclosures all ask for waste diversion metrics. But if your program is based on estimated tonnage and assumption-driven baselines, your numbers don't tell the real story — and they won't survive scrutiny.
New facilities mean starting the education process from scratch every time
When you open a new location or onboard a new building, getting employees up to speed on waste sorting is a manual process — flyers, orientation sessions, hoping the information sticks. There's no scalable system that just works when a new location goes live.
What Ridright Does About It
Facility-specific guidance, for every employee, in every building — managed from one admin system.
Ridright deploys on your company intranet, sustainability portal, or employee-facing website as a searchable 'Where does this go?' tool. Each facility's version reflects its actual hauler and building programs. Employees on any device get an accurate answer for their specific location. Your sustainability team manages all facilities from one dashboard.
Per-facility disposal guidance employees can actually use
Every facility gets its own configured version of Ridright — reflecting that building's accepted materials, bin types, and disposal programs. An employee at your Chicago facility gets Chicago's guidance. An employee in Phoenix gets Phoenix's. Same interface, locally accurate answers.
Searchable, fast, accessible on any device
Employees search any item — coffee cups, aerosol cans, bubble wrap — and get an immediate answer. No digging through a recycling guide PDF, no asking a colleague, no guessing. The answer is there in the moment they need it.
Multi-site management from one admin dashboard
Your sustainability team manages all facility configurations from one place. Standardize where it makes sense, customize where it doesn't. When a vendor agreement changes at one location, update that location's guidance without touching any other.
Analytics that give your ESG reporting a data foundation
Ridright's analytics show which materials employees are searching for most at each facility, where confusion is concentrated, and how engagement with disposal guidance is trending. That's real behavioral data behind your diversion numbers — not estimates.
In-building outreach that matches your digital guidance
Use the Outreach Toolkit to generate bin labels, breakroom posters, and onboarding materials drawn from your actual facility data. The signage says the same thing as the search tool. Employees get one consistent message, not conflicting information from different sources.
