NAWMA is committed to processing 100% of recyclables recovered from its yellow-lid recycling bins in Australia by 2020.
After yellow-lid bins are collected at the kerbside, their contents are sorted into secondary raw materials at NAWMA’s Material Recovery Facility (MRF) in Edinburgh. Currently around 80% of all recovered recycling streams are recycled in South Australia and interstate.
Watch this recent segment from the ABC News to see NAWMA’s circular economy processes in action.
It is important that residents continue to recycle so that resources are not lost to landfill and that the many jobs created by the local recycling industry are maintained.
