Recycling. It has the power to breathe new life into old things.
The Australian Government is helping industry to transform your recycled rubbish into all sorts of things that definitely aren’t rubbish. Like old plastic bottles into playgrounds, used tyres into brand new roads and mobile phones back into cutting-edge electronics.
Product stewardship in Australia
Product stewardship schemes support the environmentally sound management of products and materials over their life. This includes at the end of their useful life. These arrangements may be voluntary, mandatory or shared with industry.
“We’re looking at waste materials that can be used in re-manufacturing and can therefore create value. All kinds of materials can be brought back to life and reformed.”
