RiverRecycle ramps up its operations across Asia

The Philippines operations have opened in Cebu, now actively targeting one of Manila's most critically polluted areas. This strategic move is a testament to RiverRecycle’s commitment to addressing environmental challenges head-on.

In Bangladesh, newly installed booms are increasing the collection capacity to 200 kg per month, complemented by increasing the recycling capability to 500kg per month. This is a meaningful step forward at a local level.

The expansion drive continues with RiverRecycle's pilot project in Kerala, India, which has already achieved a significant milestone by collecting 300kg of plastic waste from a single canal. Plans are well underway to replicate this process across five more canals, marking a considerable upscaling in waste management efforts locally.

Amidst this strategic expansion, RiverRecycle's CEO, Anssi Mikola, emphasises the potential of operations: "Our model is adaptable to every river and the needs of the communities it serves. This scalability is an excellent opportunity for corporates looking to enhance their contribution to the sustainable development goals."

These advances by RiverRecycle underscore a significant leap towards sustainable practices in waste management, with the potential to make a lasting impact on the environment and community livelihoods.
