Abstract

Currently, waste management and quality improvement have become a competitive factor for Brazilian companies. Having excellent quality and waste management can mean greater approval from their customers, leaving them more satisfied and gaining loyalty.

Through interviews with the company's partners and on-site visits, the study aims to map the company's production process, identify the waste that is generated in this process, analyze the destination options that this waste has in order to minimize their environmental impact. Lastly, studying the company's environment and culture to make the implementation of a quality manual viable, bringing a new culture and beliefs focused on waste management to all sectors and employees of the company.
