Welcome to International Synergies

International Synergies Limited devises and manages industrial symbiosis programmes around the world, as well as providing support to in-country partners to establish and develop their own programmes.

Our most successful programme to date is NISP, the world's only national industrial symbiosis programme that has been running in the UK since 2005 and is ranked as the world's most effective resource efficiency programme by the European Commission.

NISP's continued success at achieving economic, environmental and social benefits has seen us expand our international portfolio and assist in the set up and implementation of industrial symbiosis projects in Romania, Hungary, United States, China, Mexico, Brazil, Turkey, South Africa and Slovakia.

We believe that we have developed a truly innovative model and methodology that positions industrial symbiosis as a fundamental element in the progression towards the creation of a low carbon sustainable world economy.
