Reimagining Plastic Waste

Reimagining Plastic Waste

We want to change how people value waste. When you get involved with Beyond Bins, you’re giving back to the planet and the people.

Play your part in tackling the plastic waste issue and improve livelihoods of marginalised communities at the same time.

What is Beyond Bins?

Beyond Bins is our flagship programme that tackles the plastic waste issues whilst improving livelihoods of marginalised communities, inspired by the global project “Precious Plastic” by Dave Hakkens. Beyond Bins enables small-scale plastic recycling within trained communities, providing them with the means to generate additional income.

We believe that everyone should be able to have a chance at a better life. We’re doing that with every piece of plastic that is diverted from landfills and upcycled.

That’s the vision of Beyond Bins.

What is Beyond Bins?

Through Beyond Bins, we have found that our communities have developed positive behavioural changes towards recycling and place value to waste through the small-scale recycling machines. 

It is recognised that Beyond Bins has become the asset of community stewardship in raising the awareness of community identity as part of the solution of a circular economy. 

Our Beyond Bins communities no longer see waste as a non-value item but instead, as a vast potential to help them generate income.
