Saahas Zero Waste is a socio-environmental enterprise with an overall experience of 10 years in the waste management sector. We believe in a circular economy where all waste is converted to resources. In this context, we leverage technology and data to provide a transparent view of the waste flow and the impact created through responsible waste management. We specialise in designing and executing customised solutions for the goal of zero waste to landfills, especially for bulk waste generators such as technology parks, residential complexes, educational institutions, hotels and others. In 2018, we were awarded the Swachh Best Practice Award by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as recognition of the work done in the space. In addition, we work with brands and producers to channelize plastic waste and e-waste for responsible processing under their extended producer responsibilities. In 2019, we diverted 10,000 MT of plastic waste from dumpsites and other open spaces under the extended producer responsibility program. To close the loop, we also offer products made from waste such as roofing sheets, clipboards, stationary, upcycled textile products, apparel and more. Our work supports livelihoods at the base of the pyramid and we consistently strive towards increasing the social impact of our work.

We are a solid waste management NGO that works through a combination of direct action initiatives, awareness-raising and community engagement programs, local advocacy, and long-term collaborative partnership with various government bodies. Our mission is (1) to develop sustainable solid waste management systems by being a catalyst for community-based decentralized initiatives in rural, urban, and protected areas, (2) to pioneer replicable models of waste management, innovative practices in awareness and education, and (3) to formalize and improve the informal livelihoods and stigmatized conditions of waste workers.

Plastic Bank is a social fintech with a global bottle deposit program that helps end poverty and stop plastic pollution. Our mission is gathering for prosperity: bringing people and businesses together to reveal value in discarded plastic and turn it into income, social benefits, and opportunity for underserved communities. Across the Philippines, Indonesia, Brazil, Egypt, and Thailand, registered collectors exchange gathered plastic through Plastic Bank’s blockchain-secured platform, enabling traceable collection, secured income, and verified reporting. Our collector communities have hand-gathered the largest volume of discarded plastic in history, returning it as recycled feedstock to the circular economy. People and businesses reduce their environmental footprint and support communities through an impact membership. Members access tools to share impact, invite their customers to join, and grow.
