  Economy

By converting waste into new products, we are able to create more jobs, build more competitive recycling and remanufacturing (reuse) based companies. This directly brings economic benefits for us, the country as well as the environment. If we support reusing and recycling waste, we are able to present a significant force in our country's economy and make a vital contribution to job creation and economic development.
