MYANMAR RECYCLES
For a Zero Plastic Waste Future
SOLVING MYANMAR'S PLASTIC CRISIS
Since 2017, Myanmar Recycles has been providing an industrial scale solution to Myanmar’s plastic pollution problem with support from Yangon’s municipal authority.
Our Company's vision is achieving a zero plastic waste future by collecting and recycling traditionally unrecyclable, valueless plastic film that is a significant contributor to our global plastic waste crisis. These are the plastic bags and wrappers that we all throw away each day, that are littered and burned on street corners, and that clog Myanmar's waterways and landfills.
