Problem Statement
How might we dispose of rubbish correctly so recyclable materials and organic waste are not ending up in landfill?
Customer / Problem
Our customers are students in schools between grades 1 and 12 that contribute to problems such as littering in the community and who require education on how to correctly dispose of their waste.
Solution
Our purpose is to educate students across the country in how to take care of the environment. In order to do this, we provide schools with our specialty bins, made from recycled plastic, that make recycling easier and more efficient. 15% of the profit will be put into feeding homeless people. All plastic bottles in our bins are recycled at depots and the money collected will be given to charity.
