Let’s face it–it’s hard to manage your waste at home! Separating plastics, aluminum cans, cardboard boxes is just not something everyone has time for. 

  • Rekosistem has drop off points and pickup services to help you manage your waste.
  • Get rewards? You can get points that can redeemed through vouchers and GoPay. 

Oh, and they also sell a compost kit so you can take care of those vegetable scraps!

🛢️Bye-bye, garbage

If you think managing waste is hard for individuals, it’s a way tougher taskfor businesses. 

  • Rekosistem collects waste directly from the business and even pays for your segregated waste. 
  • What else? They can pick up your used cooking oils. 

Who they serve. Brands like P&G, Google, Ajinomoto, GoTo, and more!

💰 Give them more waste!

Who’s using Rekosistem? More than 20,000 households and 100 business customers!

  • They already manage 2.5K metric tons of waste per month.

♻️ What’s next? 

They’re going to double down on their operations to manage 20K metric tons of waste per month. 

  • They’ll expand to using IoT and machine learning tech. 
  • Oh, and they’ll also ramp up their recycling tech and material recovery facilities too.
