Our Mission
New Life Plastics is an integrated partner in the value chain with the Hong Kong government, producers to final consumers, through reuse, recycle, and rebottle. We provide a sustainable solution to Hong Kong’s plastic waste by creating a plastic bottle circular economy.
Our Vision
To be seen as a global role model in processing post-consumer PET and HDPE.
Hong Kong Today
Hong Kong today has no policy around source separation of household and or office waste, therefore most ends up in landfills. The Waste Disposal (Charging for Municipal Solid Waste) (Amendment) has been passed by the Legislative Council in August 2021 but in preparatory period.
So today, any so-called recyclable material is largely reliant on its intrinsic value to pull it from the waste stream. This intrinsic value via largely informal Collection systems leads to these recyclables being baled and exported for recycling.
Where We Need To Be?
All recyclables need to be taken from their respective waste streams at source – so before contamination and processed in state-of-the-art recycling facilities. These should either be in Hong Kong or abroad subject to economies of scale and the economics of the logistics. NLP hopes to provide a solution to this issue, for post-consumer PET and HDPE recycling in Hong Kong.
