Hollister won The Green Transformation Award (500+ Employees) for its SRF Waste Process Transformation during the Green Awards 2025 earlier this year, recognised for its collaborative, innovative approach to improving waste efficiency and environmental performance at scale.

The winning initiative focused on maximising efficiency across all waste streams, with particular emphasis on optimising transport loads and embedding effective controls throughout the process. By bringing multiple teams together around shared sustainability goals, the project delivered measurable improvements while reinforcing accountability and continuous improvement.

Judges praised the entry for its end-to-end approach, highlighting the strength of collaboration and practical execution.

“This entrant demonstrated excellent collaboration across all waste streams to maximise efficiency and transport loads through effective controls. The project showcased innovation and collaboration at every step, leading to impressive results. Well done to all involved on this remarkable win,” the judges said.

Hollister’s recognition reflects a broader progression across the Green Awards programme, where organisations are increasingly distinguished by their ability to combine operational discipline with forward-looking environmental strategies.

As focus now shifts to the next awards cycle, anticipation is building around which organisations will follow in these footsteps. With momentum accelerating across Ireland’s sustainability landscape, attention turns to the initiatives and leaders poised to define the year ahead.
