RegenizeMaking recycling accessible, inclusive and rewarding



Regenize provides a freemium recycling service. In lower-income communities, the service is free to residents and in middle-upper communities, residents, business and apartment blocks pay them a monthly fee to collect their recyclables.
They provide informal waste collectors with decentralised community-based recycling hubs for them to operate, PPE, recycling tricycles and access to clean recyclables. Once collected and sorted, Regenize purchase the recycled materials and sells them in bulk to waste processors. There are two future revenue streams; marketing on tricycles as they expand and selling fair or ethically traded recyclable material.
