In a significant step forward for sustainability, Geelong’s very own GT Recycling has made monumental strides in addressing one of the world’s most challenging environmental issues: soft plastics recycling. With crucial support from both the Federal and Victorian Governments, the company has successfully established a cutting-edge re-processing facility in Geelong. This new facility marks a major milestone in the fight against plastic waste, setting a new standard for sustainable practices in the region.
The official opening of the facility was a proud moment for the community, graced by the presence of local Members of Parliament Christine Couzens and Libby Coker MP. The event highlighted the importance of innovation and collaboration in tackling environmental challenges, with GT Recycling at the forefront of these efforts.
As a long-standing member of the Geelong Manufacturing Council, GT Recycling has consistently provided sustainable recycling solutions to businesses, councils, and government departments. Their latest venture into soft plastics re-processing is a testament to their commitment to environmental stewardship.
In addition to the new facility, GT Recycling has forged strategic partnerships with end-use product innovators like Robovoid. Together, they are driving advancements in sustainable construction practices by incorporating recycled plastics into concrete products, making the construction industry more eco-friendly.
GT Recycling’s new facility is not just a win for the environment but also for businesses in the region. Companies with commercial quantities of plastic waste can now take advantage of GT Recycling’s collection services, ensuring that their waste is processed sustainably and contributing to a cleaner future.
For those looking to support sustainable practices and reduce their environmental footprint, GT Recycling stands ready to provide comprehensive recycling solutions. Congratulations to GT Recycling on this incredible achievement, which not only benefits Geelong but sets an inspiring example for the rest of Australia.
