IN September, Mpact Recycling announced that their on-site waste management service offering, previously called Remade On Site, would be rebranded as Mpact Waste Management and become its own independent brand within the Mpact Group.
Mpact is a paper and plastics packaging manufacturer and recycling business in Southern Africa. Its integrated business model is focused on closing the loop in the plastic and paper packaging manufacturing cycle by continuously maximising value and minimising waste.
The previously named Remade On Site was the on-site waste management service offering within Remade Recycling. It comprises a team of experts with over 30 years of waste management experience that create bespoke waste management solutions for its clients and work on site at their premises. The teams operate at over 250 sites nationally, offering tailormade solutions for businesses of all sizes, big or small.
“Mpact Waste Management offers its customers a single point of contact and the team is easily accessible,” says John Hunt, Managing Director of the recycling business comprising Mpact Recycling and Mpact Waste Management.
“The Mpact Waste Management team get to know their sites intimately so they understand a business’ individual waste patterns, can advise accordingly and adapt an environmentally acceptable solution where necessary,” he says.
This on-site perspective allows Mpact Waste Management to assist businesses in reducing the amount of their waste going to landfill by identifying what can and cannot be recycled, and what is potentially hazardous waste. Business owners can also be assured of legal compliance through the implementation of on-site waste management solutions.
“This change ushers in a positive era for our business that provides a national footprint of recycling services, which serve our clients and customers better, and fosters a strong sense of collaboration among our employees,” concludes Hunt.
Mpact Waste Management serves the following industries: printing, packaging manufactures, FMCG, retail, commercial, manufacturing and logistics and distribution.
Mpact has a footprint of 44 operating sites in South Africa, Namibia and Mozambique.
In 2021, Mpact collected over 600,000 tons of paper and plastic recyclables from pre- and post-consumer sources. In closing the loop in the paper and plastic manufacturing cycle, the amount of material going to landfill is reduced, local beneficiation of raw materials is promoted and the development of small businesses is supported.
The business’ mission is to develop practical, economically viable and environmentally sustainable solutions that bring South Africa closer to a true circular economy.
