Building a Circular Economy
Consistent with the principles of the circular economy, we focus on the inverted pyramid of waste management. In keeping with SDG12: Responsible Consumption and Production and our commitment to the circular economy, we continued with our integrated waste and e-waste recycling programme in partnership with Takataka Solutions & Weee Center.
Our Targets
- Recycle/repurpose 100% of our solid waste by 2025
- Zero single use plastics from our operations by 2025
- 20% annual growth in E-Waste collected
- Recycle, Reuse or Resale of 100% our network waste by 2025.
