Close the loop together
It is estimated that global waste generation will be 3.4 billion tons per year by 2050. Sustainable waste management is critical to address this challenge.
At Geocycle, our mission is to close the loop by transforming waste into resources on a large scale and promote a sustainable circular economy.
Watch our three-part documentary series for an in-depth look at effective waste management and discover how Geocycle is helping to reduce the reliance on incineration and landfill.
Episode one
Over 30 million passengers pass through the Athens International Airport every year, and with that comes a lot of waste.
So where does it all end up?
As the airport’s sole waste management service provider, Geocycle is responsible for 100% of its non-hazardous solid waste.
Our solutions respect the waste management hierarchy, with our teams prioritizing recycling as much as possible and at the highest value.
Discover how our team in Greece recycles incoming waste and helps the airport achieve its first Zero Waste to Landfill Certification.
Episode two
Do you know what happens to waste materials that can’t be recycled the usual way?
Geocycle has the solution: turn them into cement!
To make cement, you need raw materials and heat to create something called clinker. But what does clinker production have to do with non-recyclable waste?
Find out now and learn how Geocycle supports sustainable cement production by recycling the non-recyclable and keeps waste out of incinerators and landfills.
Episode three
Plastic pollution is quickly becoming one of the greatest challenges to sustainability.
As plastic breaks down, it becomes smaller and smaller particles, called microplastics, that make their way into the oceans, soil and even the human body.
Unfortunately, due to limits in today’s technology and the cost involved, we can’t recycle plastic as much as we need to.
Geocycle is tackling plastic pollution at the source by transforming it into energy with zero residue, meanwhile reducing the reliance on traditional fossil fuels.
Check out how Geocycle is making this possible in Mexico, while simultaneously supporting local communities.
