Frequency | Weekly | Flexible (daily/monthly) |
Materials | Basic (paper, plastic) | Specialized (e-waste, chemicals) |
Documentation | Standard summaries | Detailed, audit-ready analytics |
Built for Commercial & Industrial Needs
Manufacturing plants and offices have distinct needs. Factories benefit from volume-based pricing, while corporate clients prioritize convenience. As examples:
- A food manufacturer recycles 5 tons of packaging monthly, cutting costs by 20%.
- A tech factory securely processes 500+ devices per quarter, meeting NEA rules.
Audit processes are simplified by real-time tracking. From pickup weights to final disposal, everything is documented.
Materials We Recycle
From old smartphones to factory scrap, many materials can get a second life. We manage diverse streams to ensure safe, efficient recovery. Our methods comply with Singapore’s stringent environmental standards.
E-Waste: Responsible Electronics Disposal
Electronics often include hazardous items like mercury and lead. We handle safely:
- CRT monitors and Li-ion batteries (leak-tested).
- Devices with data (certified NEA-standard destruction).
- Ni-Cd batteries plus circuit boards (manual dismantling).
Specialized equipment extracts reusable metals while neutralizing toxins.
Turning Plastic and Metal Scrap into Reusable Goods
Our sorting systems identify plastic types (PET, HDPE, LDPE) using infrared scanners. Metal recovery reaches 98% purity using electromagnetic separation. Common materials include:
- ABS plastic from manufacturing waste.
- Aluminum plus steel alloys (melted for reuse).
Complex Items: Batteries, Steel, Etc.
Complex items need tailored solutions:
- Lead-acid batteries processed with neutralization and lead recovery.
- Stainless steel sorted by grade for smelting.
- Devices with mercury: sealed vacuum extraction.
All materials follow a documented chain of custody to remain compliant.
Our Full Recycling Service Process
Efficient waste handling starts with a structured process. We responsibly recover all materials, from office paper to industrial scrap. Our three-step system maximizes efficiency while meeting Singapore’s NEA standards.
Stage 1: Collect and Segregate
GPS-tracked vehicles with weight sensors optimize pickup routes. Teams deploy color-coded bins to separate plastics, metals, and hazardous items. It lowers contamination and hastens disposal.
- Sensor bins: Bin sensors trigger alerts when full.
- Regulatory labels: Labels match Singapore’s waste guidelines.
Step 2: Safe Transportation and Handling
Hazardous materials like batteries are packed in triple-layer containers. Real-time tracking maintains secure facility transit. All drivers are trained on spill response.
- e-Logs: Capture weights and collection times.
- Thermal control: Stops chemical degradation during transport.
Stage 3: Advanced Recovery
We use infrared sorting for plastics and magnetic extraction for metals. We recover 98% of aluminum scrap—20% above industry averages. Every step is documented for audits.
- Material reports: Display recovery rates by material category.
- Circular loops: Feed materials back into local manufacturing.
This comprehensive solution turns waste into resources and reduces landfill dependence. Businesses gain transparency and compliance at every stage.
Advantages of Partnering with Advance Recycling
Waste solutions can be sustainable and cost-smart. Our partnership delivers eco and financial advantages, while staying aligned to Singapore’s strict regulations.
Cost-Effective and Eco-Friendly Solutions
We cut operational costs up to 30% via waste-to-energy. For example, converting 1 ton of plastic waste generates enough energy to power 50 HDB flats for a day.
Certified e-waste disposal can earn businesses carbon credits. That converts compliance into revenue, eligible within Singapore’s carbon trading mechanisms.
Compliance with Singapore’s Environmental Regulations
We streamline compliance with the Resource Sustainability Act. Digital audit trails provide 24/7 access to compliance records, covering pickup through final processing.
We provide the following solutions:
- Automated reporting for NEA inspections.
- Hazardous material handling certified by SCAL.
- Real-time tracking that helps avoid penalties.
Cross-Industry Solutions
Waste management isn’t one-size-fits-all—each sector demands tailored strategies. We tailor systems to manage sector-specific challenges, from high-volume factory scrap to confidential office paper disposal.
Manufacturing and Industrial Clients
Industrial sites require robust solutions for heavy streams. Our closed-loop systems recover 95% of automotive metal scrap, and semiconductor clients benefit from hazardous containment.
- Semiconductor streams: Handled securely: wafers and chemical byproducts.
- Vehicle scrap: Melting and reforming steel alloys for reuse.
- Custom schedules: Daily for construction; weekly for warehouses.
Retail & Office Programs
Retail has packaging volume; offices focus on data security. Cardboard compactors and secure shredders are deployed.
Offering | Retail Sector | Office Sector |
---|---|---|
Pickup Frequency | Twice weekly | Monthly |
Key Materials | Boxboard and plastic film | Paper, e-waste |
Extras | Balers for packaging | Certified secure shredding |
Fortune 500 regional HQs rely on our audit-ready tracking. Even F&B businesses cut costs by 25% with optimized waste schedules.
Sustainability’s Role in Recycling
Singapore’s limited landfill space makes sustainable waste practices critical. With Semakau Landfill projected to fill by 2035, improper disposal risks ecological damage and higher costs. Responsible recovery turns this challenge into opportunity.
Cutting Environmental Risk
Recycling one ton of plastic averts 2kg of marine debris. We divert over 3,000 tons per year—equal to 25 football fields of ocean waste.
Hazardous materials like lithium batteries pose fire risks if landfilled. Certified processing neutralizes these threats as we recover valuable metals.
Enabling the Circular Economy
Discarded electronics become urban furniture via upcycling. Partner workshops repurpose circuit boards into benches at 15 HDB hubs across Singapore.
Via Tuas Nexus, food waste is converted to biogas powering 200+ households monthly. Closed loops extend material use and cut virgin inputs by 40%.
- Impact per year: CO2 reduced by 12,000 tons through recovery.
- Audited metrics: Progress tracked by third-party audited reports.
- Local partnerships: Schools and businesses join clean-up initiatives.
Advanced Technology in Recycling
Today’s recycling relies on smart systems for efficiency and security. AI and blockchain are integrated in Singapore facilities for high-precision recovery.
Innovative Sorting and Processing Techniques
AI optical scanners deliver 99.5% purity—well above manual sorting. These systems identify plastic types in milliseconds using hyperspectral imaging.
With NTU, we enhance polymer recovery using enzymatic methods. This green chemistry approach extracts raw materials without toxic byproducts.
- Blockchain provides traceability from collection to resale
- Electromagnetic separation achieves 98% metal recovery
- Robotics handle hazardous items such as lithium batteries
Data Security for E-Waste Disposal
IMDA-certified, military-grade wiping is required for corporate IT assets. We use a three-pass overwrite that meets strict cybersecurity standards in Singapore.
We provide serialized destruction certificates for audit trails. Each device undergoes:
- Physical inspection for data storage components
- Degauss magnetic media
- Shredding to 2mm particles
Our R&D continually tests new techniques against encryption. Ensuring compliance as storage technology advances.
