India: Geocycle India has launched a “transparent and auditable waste management service” in the form of plastic waste collection with support of Cleanhub. Following a successful pilot in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, Geocycle will now collect used plastic packaging from its customers. The company said that the material will be co-processed by Ambuja Cement at its integrated Bhatapara plant in Chhattisgarh. Between 1 April 2019 and 30 March 2020 Geocycle supplied 21,700t of plastic for use as fuel to cement producers. The company said, “This has created a co-dependent business model which is a win-win for all the stakeholders.”
