Hyderabad Polyethylene Plastic Recycling Plant

completed

The city’s first Polyethylene Plastic Recycling Plant was inaugurated at the Garbage Transfer Station of Sindh Solid Waste Management Board in Kohsar area. The plant, set up in collaboration with Pak Altas, a waste management company, handles plastic garbage generated in the city and produces high-strength manhole covers from recycled polyethylene plastic. The project aims to address the issue of frequent theft of cast-iron sewer lids by producing plastic manhole covers that have no resale value. The plant also employs local women, contributing to community empowerment.
