Industrial and Commercial waste survey Wales 2012
The purpose of this study was to produce information on the quantities, origins (by industry sector and geographic region), and fate (management method) of industrial and commercial (I and C) wastes generated by businesses in Wales in 2012. This information is required by Welsh Government for a variety of reasons including: reporting on waste generation in compliance with the EU Waste Statistics Regulations 2002; informing the development of national waste policy; monitoring progress against national waste prevention and recycling targets; informing waste planners and the regulator; and providing data to the waste management industry to inform investment decisions. The precision for the total waste generated was +/- 7.9% at 90% confidence.

Data was collected from 1,540 business sites of differing sectors and sizes throughout Wales between July 2013 and December 2013. The data was grossed up using population data to regional and national level in Wales. Office for National Statistics data showed that there were 85,695 industrial and commercial business units in Wales in 2012 with 7% in industrial sectors and 93% in commerce. Of these businesses, 63% had fewer than five employees and 2% had one hundred or more employees. The methodology used in this survey was comparable with the previous I and C surveys completed in Wales, of which the most recent provided data for the 2007 calendar year.
