Welcome to EWC Codes
Helping you better classify your waste through, simple, open data.
Our API contains the full, comprehensive EWC code lists, meaning you get access to all possible categorisation records.
All codes have a density figure so you can calculate weight from the size of your waste containers.
All codes come with a hazardous flag so you know whether the waste you have categorised needs some extra attention!
EWC Codes' API has been integral to our ability to scale our waste management solutions. Not having to maintain waste categorisation data has allowed us to focus on growing the business and not wasting time scouring through legislation on how to classify waste.
