Defining a Full Recycling Service

Businesses in Singapore face mounting pressure to manage waste efficiently. A complete recycling service streamlines this process, spanning pickup through final processing. It returns materials to production and reduces dependence on landfills.

End-to-End Waste Management

Our comprehensive system covers:

Collection: Scheduled pickups for consistent waste removal.
Separation: High-precision separation of plastics, metals, and e-waste.
Material Processing: Responsible processing into reusable inputs.
Documentation: Audit-ready reports for compliance.

Here’s how standard and tailored plans differ:

Feature	Baseline Plan	Tailored Plan
Pickup Frequency	Weekly schedule	Flexible (daily/monthly)
Accepted Materials	Core items (paper, plastic)	Specialized (e-waste, chemicals)
Documentation	Summary reports	Audit-ready analytics

Customized for Business and Industry

Commercial offices and manufacturing sites each have unique needs. Industrial sites benefit from volume pricing; corporates value convenience. As examples:

A food manufacturer recycles 5 tons of packaging monthly, cutting costs by 20%.
An electronics factory securely processes 500+ devices quarterly, meeting NEA standards.

Compliance features like real-time tracking simplify audits. Every step is documented, from pickup weights to final disposal methods.

Materials We Recycle

A wide range of materials, from phones to factory scrap, can be reborn. We process varied streams for safe and efficient recovery. All processes meet Singapore’s strict environmental standards.

E-Waste: Responsible Electronics Disposal

Discarded electronics contain hazardous items like mercury and lead. We handle safely:

CRT monitors and Li-ion batteries (leak-tested).
Devices with data (certified NEA-standard destruction).
Nickel-cadmium batteries and circuit boards (dismantled manually).

Our equipment captures reusable metals and neutralizes toxins.

Plastics and Metals: From Scrap to Reusable Products

We use infrared scanners to identify plastic types like PET, HDPE, and LDPE. Metal recovery hits 98% purity via electromagnetic separation. Frequent materials are:

ABS plastic from manufacturing waste.
Aluminum and steel alloys (smelted for industrial reuse).

Specialized Items: Batteries, Steel, and More

Tailored solutions are required for complex items:

Lead-acid batteries: Acid neutralization and lead recovery.
Graded stainless steel for smelting.
Mercury devices processed via sealed vacuum extraction.

Each material follows a documented chain of custody for compliance.

Process Overview — Full Recycling Service

Efficient waste handling starts with a structured process. We responsibly recover all materials, from office paper to industrial scrap. Our three-step system maximizes efficiency while meeting Singapore’s NEA standards.

Stage 1: Collect and Segregate

GPS-tracked vehicles with weight sensors optimize pickup routes. Color-coded bins help teams separate plastics, metals, and hazardous items. That cuts contamination and accelerates disposal.

Smart bin tech: Sensors alert crews when bins are full.
NEA compliance: Labeling aligned to Singapore guidelines.

Step 2 — Transport & Handling

We pack hazardous materials, including batteries, in triple-layer containers. Secure transit is ensured with real-time tracking. Drivers receive spill-response training.

Digital logs: Record weights and pickup times.
Temperature control: Prevents chemical degradation during transit.

Step 3: Advanced Recycling and Recovery

Plastics are sorted by infrared scanners as magnets capture metals. Aluminum scrap recovery hits 98%—20% above the industry average. Every step is documented for audits.

Material reports: Show recovery rates by category.
Closed-loop systems: Reuse materials in local manufacturing.

This comprehensive solution turns waste into resources and reduces landfill dependence. Companies benefit from transparency and compliance throughout.

Benefits of Choosing Advance Recycling

Waste solutions can be sustainable and cost-smart. Partnering with us unlocks financial and environmental advantages, all while adhering to Singapore’s strict regulations.

Cost-Effective and Eco-Friendly Solutions

Waste-to-energy initiatives reduce operational costs by as much as 30%. Example: 1 ton of plastic waste powers 50 HDB flats for a day.

Certified e-waste disposal can earn businesses carbon credits. Compliance becomes a revenue opportunity, including eligibility under Singapore’s carbon trading schemes.

Regulatory Compliance Made Simple

We streamline compliance with the Resource Sustainability Act. Digital audit trails provide 24/7 access to compliance records, from pickup to final processing.

We provide the following solutions:

Automated reporting for NEA inspections.
SCAL-certified hazardous material handling.

Why Sustainability Matters in Recycling

Singapore’s limited landfill space makes sustainable waste practices critical. Semakau Landfill is projected to reach capacity by 2035, improper disposal risks ecological damage and higher costs. Responsible recovery turns this challenge into opportunity.

Cutting Environmental Risk

Recycling one ton of plastic averts 2kg of marine debris. Our programs divert 3,000+ tons annually—equivalent to clearing 25 football fields of ocean waste.

Landfilled lithium batteries and other hazardous materials pose fire risks. Through certified processing, we neutralize these threats while recovering valuable metals.

Supporting a Circular Economy

Discarded electronics become urban furniture via upcycling. Across 15 HDB hubs, partners repurpose circuit boards into benches.

Tuas Nexus converts food waste to biogas, powering 200+ households each month. Circular loops lengthen material life and reduce virgin inputs by 40%.

Yearly impact: 12,000 tons of CO2 cut via recovery programs.
Verified metrics: Third-party audited sustainability reports track progress.
Local partnerships: Schools plus businesses join cleanup initiatives.

Technology that Powers Recycling

Modern recycling relies on smart systems to maximize efficiency and security. Singapore’s facilities now integrate artificial intelligence and blockchain for unprecedented precision in waste recovery.

Innovative Sorting and Processing Techniques

AI-powered optical scanners achieve 99.5% material purity—far surpassing manual sorting. Using hyperspectral imaging, plastics are identified in milliseconds.

Our partnership with NTU enhances polymer recovery through enzymatic breakdown. This approach extracts raw materials minus toxic byproducts.

Blockchain ensures traceability end-to-end
Electromagnetic separators recover metals with 98% efficiency
Robotic systems manage hazardous items including lithium batteries

Securing Data During E-Waste Processing

IMDA-certified, military-grade wiping is required for corporate IT assets. Our three-pass overwrite process meets Singapore’s strict cybersecurity standards for sensitive information.

Audit trails include serialized destruction certificates. Each device undergoes:

Inspecting hardware for data components
Degaussing of magnetic media
End shredding down to 2mm particles

Our R&D continually tests new techniques against encryption. Ensuring compliance as storage technology advances.
