Built for Commercial & Industrial Needs
Commercial offices and manufacturing sites each have unique needs. Industrial sites benefit from volume pricing; corporates value convenience. As examples:
- One food manufacturer recycles 5 tons of packaging each month, reducing costs by 20%.
- A tech factory securely processes 500+ devices per quarter, meeting NEA rules.
Real-time tracking features make audits simple. All steps are documented—from pickup weights to disposal methods.
What We Recycle
A wide range of materials, from phones to factory scrap, can be reborn. We process varied streams for safe and efficient recovery. Our processes meet Singapore’s strict environmental standards.
Responsible E-Waste Disposal
E-waste holds hazardous items such as mercury and lead. We process responsibly:
- CRT monitors and lithium-ion batteries (tested for leaks).
- Devices with data (certified NEA-standard destruction).
- Ni-Cd batteries plus circuit boards (manual dismantling).
Special equipment extracts reusable metals and neutralizes toxins.
Plastics and Metals: From Scrap to Reusable Products
Infrared scanners let our systems identify plastic types (PET, HDPE, LDPE). Metal recovery reaches 98% purity using electromagnetic separation. Typical materials include:
- Manufacturing-derived ABS plastic.
- Aluminum plus steel alloys (melted for reuse).
Complex Items: Batteries, Steel, Etc.
Complex items call for customized approaches:
- Lead-acid batteries: Acid neutralization and lead recovery.
- Stainless steel sorted by grade for smelting.
- Mercury devices processed via sealed vacuum extraction.
All materials follow a documented chain of custody to remain compliant.
Our Full Recycling Service Process
Efficiency begins with a structured process. From office paper to industrial scrap, we ensure responsible recovery. Our three-step system maximizes efficiency while meeting Singapore’s NEA standards.
Step 1 — Collection & Segregation
We optimize routes with GPS-tracked vehicles and weight sensors. Color-coded bins help teams separate plastics, metals, and hazardous items. This reduces contamination and speeds up disposal.
- Sensor bins: Sensors notify crews at fill-level.
- Regulatory labels: Labels aligned with NEA waste guidelines.
Step 2 — Transport & Handling
Hazardous materials like batteries are packed in triple-layer containers. Secure transit is ensured with real-time tracking. All drivers are trained on spill response.
- e-Logs: Record weights and pickup times.
- Thermal control: Prevents degradation in transit.
Step 3: Advanced Recycling and Recovery
Plastics are sorted by infrared scanners as magnets capture metals. Aluminum scrap recovery hits 98%—20% above the industry average. Every step is documented for audits.
- Category reports: Show recovery rates by category.
- Circular loops: Return materials to local production.
This end-to-end solution turns waste into resources without landfill reliance. At each stage, businesses gain transparency and compliance.
Advantages of Partnering with Advance Recycling
Waste solutions can be sustainable and cost-smart. Working with us unlocks both financial and environmental benefits, 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.
Businesses also gain carbon credits through certified e-waste disposal. Compliance becomes a revenue opportunity, eligible within Singapore’s carbon trading mechanisms.
Regulatory Compliance Made Simple
We make Resource Sustainability Act compliance simple. Digital trails offer round-the-clock access to compliance records, covering pickup through final processing.
Included in our solutions:
- Automated reporting for NEA inspections.
- SCAL-certified hazardous material handling.
- Live tracking to reduce regulatory risk.
Serving Businesses Across Industries
There’s no one-size-fits-all in waste management; each sector needs tailored strategies. We tailor systems to manage sector-specific challenges, covering high-volume scrap and secure office paper disposal alike.
Solutions for Industry
Industrial sites require robust solutions for heavy streams. Closed-loop systems recover up to 95% of automotive metal scrap, and semiconductor partners gain secure hazardous containment.
- Semiconductor streams: Handled securely: wafers and chemical byproducts.
- Auto metal scrap: Smelting and reforming steel alloys for reuse.
- Tailored pickup schedules: Construction sites daily; warehouses weekly.
Retail and Office Waste Management
Retailers face packaging overload, while offices prioritize data security. We deploy compactors for cardboard and shredders for sensitive documents.
Program | Retail Clients | Office |
---|---|---|
Service Frequency | Bi-weekly pickups | Once per month |
Key Materials | Boxboard and plastic film | Office paper, e-waste |
Key Features | Baling machines | Certified secure shredding |
Regional HQs of Fortune 500 firms rely on audit-ready tracking. F&B sites trim costs 25% via optimized schedules.
Why Sustainability Matters in Recycling
With limited landfill space, sustainable practices are critical in Singapore. Semakau may be full by 2035, improper disposal increases ecological risk and costs. Responsible recovery converts this challenge into opportunity.
Reducing Environmental Risks
Every ton of plastic recycled prevents 2kg of marine debris. Annually, 3,000+ tons diverted—about 25 football fields of ocean waste.
Lithium batteries in landfills present fire hazards. We use certified processing to neutralize risks and recover valuable metals.
Supporting a Circular Economy
Upcycling turns discarded electronics into urban furniture. Across 15 HDB hubs, partners repurpose circuit boards into benches.
Tuas Nexus converts food waste to biogas, powering 200+ households each month. Circular loops lengthen material life and reduce virgin inputs by 40%.
- Yearly impact: 12,000 tons CO2 reduced through recovery programs.
- Verified metrics: Third-party audits verify sustainability progress.
- Community partnerships: Businesses and schools team up for cleanup efforts.
Technology that Powers Recycling
Today’s recycling relies on smart systems for efficiency and security. AI and blockchain are integrated in Singapore facilities for high-precision recovery.
Next-Gen Sorting & Processing
AI-powered optical scanners achieve 99.5% material purity—far surpassing manual sorting. Using hyperspectral imaging, plastics are identified in milliseconds.
Our partnership with NTU enhances polymer recovery through enzymatic breakdown. This approach extracts raw materials minus toxic byproducts.
- Blockchain ensures traceability end-to-end
- Electromagnetic separation achieves 98% metal recovery
- Robotic systems manage hazardous items including lithium batteries
Securing Data During E-Waste Processing
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. Every device undergoes:
- Inspecting hardware for data components
- Degaussing of magnetic media
- End shredding down to 2mm particles
R&D teams test evolving methods to address encryption. That ensures compliance as storage tech evolves.
