We Reduce Reuse & Recycle
Polyafric Industries Ltd is a Kenyan registered recycling company that was established in 2014 to address the challenge of plastic waste by employing the closed loop recycling business model.
We work with community-based organizations (CBOs) in the removal and recovery of nature-bound plastic waste, which we then recycle to make new products. At Polyafric we accept both post-consumer and Industrial plastic waste.
Our ethically sourced materials are processed into high quality products without contaminations. These products meet the local and international standards.

Closed loop Recycling
Waste pickers
Post-consumer plastic waste is collected from the environment and consolidated at the collection centers.The waste pickers collect and gather plastic waste in areas that are inaccessible to traditional waste collection systems. Reasons being they are in these communities and can also utilize handcarts as a means of transport.
Collection centers
At these points the collected materials are registered using the tracking app which captures the journey of the waste to the final products. Waste pickers are also directly well compensated at reliable pricing without including any middlemen.
Recycling
The collected waste is transported to our recycling facility where it is further sorted, washed and processed into raw materials.
Manufacturing
The raw materials are then processed into final HDPE, LDPE or PP products effectively closing the loop. These products are able to enter the market again and have not been manufactured using virgin material.
