The Plastics Journey
From waste reduction to social value, we embed sustainability into our operations, infrastructure, and partnerships.
1
Source Segregation
Separating plastics like PET and HDPE at the source is essential for quality recycling; dedicated bins for each type help achieve this.
2
Sorting and Processing
Upon arrival at our facility, the waste undergoes a thorough sorting process to eliminate contaminants before proceeding to the next stage of processing.
3
Transformation
Non-recyclable plastics will be processed into Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF), which will subsequently be utilised for energy generation.

What Plastics can be recycled?
Focusing on the most common commercial polymers
Our service can help you recycle the most common plastics found in business waste. This includes PET (drinks bottles), HDPE (milk bottles and drums), LDPE (packaging film and bags), and PP (Rigid containers and crates). Our team can provide guidance on identifying and separating these types of plastics.
The Importance of Quality
Recycle quality, reproduce quality
If waste plastic contains food, liquid, or other contaminants, it may make entire batches of plastic unrecyclable. Ensuring that plastic waste is clean and properly sorted helps maintain its value and supports successful recycling processes. This practice can also contribute to more accurate ESG reporting.
