From Waste to Raw Material: Three Processing Streams at Rewaste

Organics become maggot feedstock, plastics become flakes, and residue goes to RDF. Here is how we cut the waste that ends up in landfill.

We believe all waste still has value when it is handled properly. After collection, client waste is sorted into three processing streams so that as little as possible ends up in landfill.

1. Organic: feedstock

Organic waste from the FMCG and food industries is processed and supplied as raw material for animal feed and maggot farming. Waste that would rot in landfill becomes a protein source for livestock.

2. Plastic: from post-consumer to flakes

At our Plastic Waste Recycling Facility, post-consumer and industrial plastic is sorted and ground into flakes ready for processing. The sorted, cleaned material is then traded as raw material for industry.

3. Residue: RDF and licensed landfill

Residue that cannot be recycled goes through two official routes: Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) facilities first, as an alternative fuel, and licensed landfill as the alternative, in line with regulations. Every step is documented.

Why it matters

Separating waste early preserves material value and reduces residue. For clients, that means stronger sustainability reporting and more efficient costs. For the environment, it means less waste piling up in landfill.
