Our Collection System
Everyone would like to contribute to solving the plastic issue. Our collection system is an invitation to help out. Gathering and sorting plastic requires very little equipment or skill. Individuals, homes, businesses and all organizations in the Victoria Falls area will soon be able to dispose of their plastic waste safely for Ele-Collection to remove. We aim to capture all plastic entering the area by opening the door for the entire community to get involved.
Corporate and Residential
Giving your home and business an opportunity to dispose of plastic safely. This part of the collection process will help us facilitate the greater clean-up.
Giving Plastic a Value
By offering a price per kg for plastic on the street, we aim to create a self driven community wide clean-up. Anyone can collect and earn.
Our Collection Teams
We will create an income stream for the poorest members of our community by sending collection teams to sort out our worst problem areas.
Recycling All Plastics
The greatest problem that the recycling industry faces, is that very few plastic types are actually recyclable. That’s right, the little swirl of arrows on your plastic goods doesn’t mean a whole lot. Worry not, we've found technology that changes all that. By combining equipment that turns plastic into recyclable pellets and machines that convert the rest of the plastic waste into building aggregate, we will be able to displace the creation of new virgin plastic and lock the rest of it away for good. Ele-Collection is a one stop shop for closing the loop.
Plastic to Aggregate
We convert all 7 resin types of plastic into building aggregate that's suitable for structural construction. Through this process, we can lock all plastics away for good!
Plastic Pellets
This is how we use one water bottle to stop another from being made. By pelletizing and flaking HDPE, PET and PP resins, we can provide plastic manufacturers with feedstock so that they are less dependent on virgin plastic. This way we can cut back on plastic production from the top.
Collaborations
We don't want to tackle this problem alone. Ele-Collection can only achieve its goal of cleaning up Victoria Falls with the help of organisations and individuals that are willing to join the fight against plastic. So many fantastic groups have helped us get to this point and we are looking for more collaborations in the future. Let us know how you would like to be involved.
Connected Conservation
They approach conservation from a social perspective. We aim to do the same with direction from their animal human conflict experts.
Pristine Victoria Falls Society
PVFS guidance has helped us through every step of this journey. We will be working hand in hand with their team.
Children In The Wilderness
Education is the only way to address the plastic crisis in the long term. We will assist Children In The Wilderness in their efforts in environmental education.
