Defining a Full Recycling Service

Businesses in Singapore face mounting pressure to manage waste efficiently. A end-to-end recycling service streamlines this process, from pickup to end processing. It keeps materials in production cycles and cuts landfill use.

End-to-End Waste Management

Our end-to-end system includes:

• Collection: Scheduled pickups for consistent waste removal.
• Advanced Sorting: Sophisticated separation for plastics, metals, and e-waste.
• Processing: Responsible processing into reusable inputs.
• Documentation: Thorough reports to meet regulations.

Below is a comparison of standard vs tailored plans:

Category	Standard	Customized Plan
Service Frequency	Weekly	Flexible (daily/monthly)
Material Scope	Basic streams (paper, plastic)	Specialized (e-waste, chemicals)
Analytics	Basic summaries	Comprehensive, audit-ready analytics

Built for Commercial & Industrial Needs

Commercial offices and manufacturing sites each have unique needs. Factories benefit from volume-based pricing, while corporate clients prioritize convenience. As examples:

• A food producer recycles 5 tons monthly and trims costs by 20%.
• An electronics plant processes 500+ devices each quarter securely to meet NEA standards.

Real-time tracking features make audits simple. All steps are documented—from pickup weights to disposal methods.

Accepted Materials

From old smartphones to factory scrap, many materials can get a second life. We manage diverse streams to ensure safe, efficient recovery. All processes meet Singapore’s strict environmental standards.

E-Waste: Responsible Electronics Disposal

Electronics often include hazardous items like mercury and lead. We safely process:

• CRT displays and lithium-ion batteries (leak tests applied).
• Devices with data (certified NEA-standard destruction).
• Ni-Cd batteries plus circuit boards (manual dismantling).

Special equipment extracts reusable metals and neutralizes toxins.

Plastics and Metals: From Scrap to Reusable Products

Our sorting systems identify plastic types (PET, HDPE, LDPE) using infrared scanners. Metal recovery reaches 98% purity using electromagnetic separation. Frequent materials are:

• ABS plastic from manufacturing waste.
• Aluminum plus steel alloys (melted for reuse).

Special Items — Batteries, Steel & More

Complex items call for customized approaches:

• Lead-acid batteries with acid neutralization and lead recovery.
• Graded stainless steel for smelting.
• Mercury-containing devices: Sealed vacuum extraction.

All materials follow a documented chain of custody to remain compliant.

Our Full Recycling Service Process

Efficiency begins with a structured process. We ensure every material—from office paper to industrial scrap—is recovered responsibly. Our three-step approach maximizes efficiency and meets NEA standards.

Step 1 — Collection & Segregation

GPS-tracked vehicles with weight sensors optimize pickup routes. Teams deploy color-coded bins to separate plastics, metals, and hazardous items. That cuts contamination and accelerates disposal.

• Sensor bins: Bin sensors trigger alerts when full.
• Compliance labels: Labels match Singapore’s waste guidelines.

Stage 2: Safe Transport and Handling

Hazardous materials like batteries are packed in triple-layer containers. Real-time tracking maintains secure facility transit. Drivers receive spill-response training.

• e-Logs: Track waste weight and pickup times.
• Temperature control: Stops chemical degradation during transport.

Step 3 — Recycling & Recovery

We use infrared sorting for plastics and magnetic extraction for metals. Our aluminum scrap recovery reaches 98%, 20% higher than average. Every step is documented for audits.

• Recovery reports: Display recovery rates by material category.
• Closed-loop systems: Reuse materials in local manufacturing.

This comprehensive solution turns waste into resources and reduces landfill dependence. Businesses gain transparency and compliance at every stage.

Sustainability’s Role in Recycling

With limited landfill space, sustainable practices are critical in Singapore. Semakau Landfill is projected to reach capacity by 2035, improper disposal increases ecological risk and costs. Responsible recovery turns this challenge into opportunity.

Lowering Ecological Risks

Each ton of recycled plastic prevents 2kg of marine debris. Annually, 3,000+ tons diverted—about 25 football fields of ocean waste.

Landfilled lithium batteries and other hazardous materials pose fire risks. Through certified processing, we neutralize these threats while recovering valuable metals.

Driving Circularity

Upcycling transforms discarded electronics into urban furniture. Partner workshops repurpose circuit boards into benches at 15 HDB hubs across Singapore.

Via Tuas Nexus, food waste is converted to biogas powering 200+ households monthly. Closed-loop systems keep materials in use longer, cutting virgin resource needs by 40%.

• Impact per year: 12,000 tons of CO2 cut via recovery programs.
• Verified metrics: Third-party audits verify sustainability progress.
• Community partnerships: Schools and businesses join clean-up initiatives.

Technology that Powers Recycling

Recycling now uses smart systems to maximize efficiency and security. Singapore’s facilities now integrate artificial intelligence and blockchain for unprecedented precision in waste recovery.

Cutting-Edge Sorting and Processing

AI optical scanners deliver 99.5% purity—well above manual sorting. Using hyperspectral imaging, plastics are identified in milliseconds.

With NTU, we enhance polymer recovery using enzymatic methods. This approach extracts raw materials minus toxic byproducts.

• Blockchain tracks materials from collection to resale markets
• 98% metal recovery via electromagnetic separators
• Robotic arms handle hazardous items like lithium batteries

Data Security in E-Waste

Corporate IT assets require military-grade data wiping certified by IMDA. A three-pass overwrite meets Singapore’s strict cybersecurity standards.

Audit trails include serialized destruction certificates. Devices go through:

1. Inspecting hardware for data components
2. Degaussing of magnetic media
3. Shredding to 2mm particles

R&D teams continuously test new encryption-breaking techniques. Ensuring compliance as storage technology advances.
