The Middelburg Waste Management Project has a ‘clean and green’ approach to business.
As the name suggests, this project specializes in waste management, namely the recovery, repair, recycling and re-use of waste.
By following these principles they have expanded the project by doing the following:
- Making ornaments from waste paper;
- Making ornaments from glass;
- Educating people on how to keep a clean and healthy environment;
- Selling recyclable waste to recyclers; and
- Selling ornaments made from waste.
According to Mr Mose, the biggest success story so far, besides the minimization of waste to the Middelburg landfill site, has been the employment they have created. All visitors are welcome to come and see the waste management plant in operation.
