Recycling has since inception been the cornerstone of the Company’s business operations. The three main products in this service range are plastics, cardboard boxes and paper. The primary processes involve the collection, sorting, baling and transportation of the bales (mainly to Gauteng) for further processing. Recyclable waste material is bought and sold just like any other product, and prices go up and down depending on supply and demand.
