What we have accomplished?

Waste Solvent Recyling up to date: 45 000 Kg

Carbon footprint/ CO2 emissions reduction: 315 000 Kg

Namibia Plastics and Packaging Distributors has successfully upcycled 45,000 kilograms of plastic waste. Upcycling refers to the process of transforming waste materials into new, higher-value products instead of disposing of them or recycling them into lower-quality materials. By doing so, the company helps reduce environmental pollution and contributes to sustainability.

This upcycling effort has led to a significant reduction in carbon footprint emissions—315,000 kilograms (or 315 metric tons) of CO₂. This reduction is achieved because upcycling plastics prevents them from ending up in landfills or being incinerated, both of which release greenhouse gases. Additionally, repurposing plastic waste reduces the need for virgin plastic production, which is energy-intensive and generates substantial carbon emissions..

By upcycling, Namibia Plastics and Packaging Distributors not only supports the circular economy but also plays a crucial role in mitigating climate change by lowering overall carbon emissions. This initiative aligns with global sustainability goals and demonstrates a commitment to environmental responsibility.
