UPCYCLE FOR LANDFILL AVOIDANCE!
We incorporate the "THREE R's" as part of your waste management strategy.
 |
Upcycle focuses on the ‘stuff’ that is destined for landfill, not recycling. | |
| |
This extends the life of material resources, reduces the need for extraction & production of raw materials. | |
| |
Upcycling is the reinvestment into the environment through giving waste a new purpose & value. | |
| |
By turning your waste into a solution you can contribute to the circular & green economies, making disposal the last resort on your journey to becoming a "ZERO WASTE" enterprise. |

SED, CSR AND CSI INTERGRATION
Investing your
Socio- Economic Development (SED),
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
or
Corporate Social Investment (CSI)
into products (see Upcycle products)that have been through upcycling
is investing into the circular & green economy-
as these products were made by initiatives & projects that your waste managment strategy helped us set up!
Your SED contributions directly improve the quality of lives of people involved in community initiatives that have been set up in response as solutions to waste reinvention.
SED investment initiatives provide a return of investment and ‘burden of proof’ necessary, because the communities have already been set up and the training already been done.
The scaling opportunities enable collaborative CSI & SED investment from different businesses working together by tapping into projects running at different stages or levels acccording to individual needs and ensures the sustainability of training and development already put in place.
The requirement for achieving the full 5 points for socio-economic development is for measured entities to spend 1% of net profit after tax on qualifying socio-economic development (SED) beneficiaries. As per the B-BBEE codes of good practice, SED contributions must lead to income-generating opportunities for the beneficiaries. With +- R8 billion contributed to SED projects on an annual basis we are aware that often these contributions do not lead to sustainable solutions for beneficiaries.
This is where Upcycle can offer a completely unique SED solution which not only empowers beneficiaries but offers a unique value-proposition to companies as well.
Upcycle’s optimization of waste principal is based on the sustainable contribution of your company’s investment into actions that offset your environmental footprint, and sustainable management of projects that have been developed in communities as a response to waste reinvention.
Upcycle provides solutions to companies who want to be ahead of the trend & make a more positive impact on our planet!
