Ever wondered what happens to your old phone, empty juice carton or even used cooking oil? Let’s explore six everyday items that can be recycled and how Indian brands are giving waste a new life.
Your juice and milk cartons, which are bought every day? Companies like Sahas Zero Waste recycle them into paper, roofing sheets, and furniture like desks and benches.
Old phones, chargers, and broken electronics contain valuable metals. Karo Sambhav and Attero Recycling safely extract gold, silver, copper, and palladium and reuse them to make new electronic products!
Those empty toothpaste tubes and shampoo bottles? The Disposal Company and Recycle India Foundation turn them into products like new plastic bottles and other packing materials.
Used cooking oil isn’t just waste — it’s converted into biodiesel! BioD Energy and Aris BioEnergy collect and refine it for cleaner fuel.
Yes, even cigarette butts can be recycled! Code Effort turns them into cushions, keychains, toys, and other upcycled products.
That worn-out kurta? NGOs like Goonj and brands like Pawoo & Phool upcycle textiles into bags, rugs, and even compost!
Our daily discards hold untapped potential. Let us embrace the power of transformation and together weave a narrative where waste finds purpose and our planet thrives.
