Recycling subsidies are financial incentives provided by governments or other organizations to encourage the recycling of materials and reduce waste. These subsidies aim to make recycling more economically viable for businesses and individuals, as recycling can sometimes be more costly than disposing of waste in landfills or incinerating it. Here’s an overview of how recycling subsidies typically work:
Collection agents ar onboarded with a mandatory inclusion of 30% of informal sector collectors, ensuring a diverse and inclusive approach to waste collection.
Residences, HORECA (Hotels, Restaurants, Cafes), and schools are registered on a digital platform, streamlining the process for waste collection and management.
Weekly or daily kerbside collection is conducted depending on the segment (egg. Residential, commercial), ensuring regular waste collection.
Waste is sorted, crushed and aggregated at an MTS, preparing it for further processing or recycling.
Recyclables are traded with approved recyclers, ensuring that materials are processed according to industry standards
Funds generated from the trade of recyclables are reinvested in new MTS facilities, supporting the expansion and improvement of the waste management infrastructure.
