Transforming waste management systems across Central Asia and Eastern Europe through engineered landfills, transfer stations, collection optimization, and institutional capacity building for environmental compliance.
Post-Soviet cities across Central Asia and Eastern Europe face critical solid waste management challenges. Legacy dumpsites lack basic environmental controls, causing groundwater contamination and methane emissions. Collection services remain irregular, equipment outdated, and cost recovery inadequate to sustain operations.
International Financial Institutions increasingly prioritize waste sector reform, linking infrastructure investment to policy improvements—tariff reform, separation of service provision from regulation, and compliance with EU Waste Framework Directive standards where applicable.
FORLOG AG has implemented solid waste management projects across Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Moldova, Georgia, and Armenia since 2002. Our work spans engineered landfill design and construction supervision, waste collection route optimization, transfer station development, and institutional capacity building for municipal utilities.
We understand that waste management projects succeed through balancing technical standards with local realities—labor-intensive collection in low-income neighborhoods, informal recycler integration, and phased investment approaches matching municipalities' absorptive capacity.
