At its core, Recycle Mate is a mobile phone app and supporting education campaign which aims to help educate and empower Australian communities to recycle the right way. It targets:
● Helping people make the right choices in recycling
● Reducing contamination in kerbside systems
● Increasing the recovery of recyclable and reusable products
Recycle Mate recognises how many recycling opportunities there are and supports the best local solutions. This will help to facilitate new innovations in recycling and contribute to increasing Australia’s circular economy, which all helps to create more jobs in the recycling sector and reduce waste costs.
Recycle Mate provides a shared platform for all local councils, recycling stakeholders and members of the community to all contribute to the information and recycling intelligence shared with the community.
