Through our circular economy platform, we aim to eliminate waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use for as long as possible. Working with our collaboration partners, we make “zero waste to landfill” and “circular economy” in Malaysia successful.
For social impact, we are providing waste to social empowerment through job opportunities and training to less advantages, retirees and B40 communities. The fabrics collected through our fabric collection bin are being converted into beautiful upcycled products.
