ack in 2011, sustainability organisation RED Group
launched its REDcycle soft plastics recycling program
at Coles. Since then, Coles and its customers have
diverted more than 4.1 million kilograms (the equivalent of
approximately 1039 million pieces) of flexible plastic from
landfill across Australia.
Now, thanks to a $430,000 grant from the Coles Nurture
Fund, RED Group hopes to triple the amount of soft plastic
collected for recycling. The grant will be used to purchase
new processing technology, as well as three new vehicles
to increase collection and recycling efforts.
Currently, the soft plastics collected by RED Group are
recycled into a wide range of products such as outdoor
furniture, garden edging and road base for constructing
roads and pavements.
Elizabeth Kasell, founder of RED Group and the REDcycle
program, says, “This grant from the Coles Nurture Fund now
takes REDcycle to a whole new level, at a time when
investment in Australian waste recovery and recycling
is desperately needed.”
