Green Circle
Green Circle is a social enterprise dedicated to waste paper management, using the 3Rs Principle: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Green Circle innovatively combines green office practices with women empowerment and in doing so has a positive impact on the environment and community.
At Green Circle, we approach organizations/establishments to become our member. Members benefit from our knowledge on best practices of waste paper management as well as get their waste paper collected for proper recycling. They also get a discount on the recycled office stationary products that we produce.
Green Circle provide Green Bags to its member organizations, into which they fill the used papers that will be collected from GC staff member on regular basis. The papers collected are brought to the facility - weighed & segregated. Proper recording is done into our web based system so that Green Circle as well as our members can track the amount of waste that is generated by their organization.
At our recycling facility, the waste paper is segregated into two types – ones which are reusable and the ones which need to be recycled. Papers that are separated for reuse purpose are sent to make different reused paper products such as newspaper bags, pouch bags and envelopes. And the recycle papers are further sent for processing where the used papers are converted into recycle sheets & pitch boards which are further used to make recycled paper products such as files, folders, office kits, card holders and jewellery boxes.
The reused paper products are manufactured by the various women groups which we have trained over the past several months. Through the training we have empowered women to develop a skill and generate additional income for herself and her household.
