Plastics For Change Sustainability Actions

Collected and recycled plastic

Plastics for Change collects discarded plastic from the environment and converts it into high-quality recycled plastics to replace the use of old fossil fuel-based plastic.

Built fair-trade supply chains

The company connects waste collectors with global brands to ensure a consistent supply of high quality recycled plastic from fair trade verified supply chains.

Provided housing support

Namma Mane is working towards building better and innovative ways to provide housing for vulnerable waste collectors, enabling them to live better, healthier, and financially stable lives. The program collects low-value plastic waste and processes it into recycled-planks (r.Plank) used to make housing facilities for migrant waste collectors.

Supplied electric tricycles

Through the E-Tricycles program, Plastics For Change provides Electric Tricycles to waste collectors in its supply chain. The vehicles are intended to reduce physical strain and increase efficiency for collectors by enabling them to gather more waste and boost their earnings.

Developed recycled bricks

Bricks for Change converts low-value plastic waste into high-strength construction bricks. Every 1,000 bricks diverts 2MT of plastic waste, reduces use of natural resources like clay, contributes to circular construction practices, and creates income opportunities for waste collectors.
