Material Scope | Basic streams (paper, plastic) | Advanced streams (e-waste, chemicals) |
Documentation | Summary reports | Audit-ready analytics |
Customized for Business and Industry
Manufacturing plants and offices have distinct needs. Industrial sites benefit from volume pricing; corporates value convenience. For instance:
- One food manufacturer recycles 5 tons of packaging each month, reducing costs by 20%.
- An electronics factory securely processes 500+ devices quarterly, meeting NEA standards.
Audit processes are simplified by real-time tracking. All steps are documented—from pickup weights to disposal methods.
What We Recycle
Old smartphones to factory scrap—many materials deserve a second life. We process varied streams for safe and efficient recovery. All processes meet Singapore’s strict environmental standards.
E-Waste: Responsible Electronics Disposal
Electronics often include hazardous items like mercury and lead. We safely process:
- CRT displays and lithium-ion batteries (leak tests applied).
- Data-bearing devices (certified destruction to NEA standards).
- Nickel-cadmium batteries and circuit boards (dismantled manually).
Our equipment captures reusable metals and neutralizes toxins.
Plastics & Metals — From Scrap to Reuse
Infrared scanners let our systems identify plastic types (PET, HDPE, LDPE). Metal recovery hits 98% purity via electromagnetic separation. Typical materials include:
- Manufacturing-derived ABS plastic.
- Aluminum and steel alloys (melted for industrial reuse).
Specialized Items: Batteries, Steel, and More
Complex items call for customized approaches:
- Lead-acid batteries with acid neutralization and lead recovery.
- Graded stainless steel for smelting.
- Devices with mercury: sealed vacuum extraction.
Each material follows a documented chain of custody for compliance.
Our Full Recycling Service Process
Efficient waste handling starts with a structured process. From office paper to industrial scrap, we ensure responsible recovery. Our three-step approach maximizes efficiency and meets NEA standards.
Step 1 — Collection & Segregation
GPS-tracked vehicles with weight sensors optimize pickup routes. Teams deploy color-coded bins to separate plastics, metals, and hazardous items. This reduces contamination and speeds up disposal.
- Smart bins: Bin sensors trigger alerts when full.
- NEA compliance: Labels aligned with NEA waste guidelines.
Step 2: Safe Transportation and Handling
Hazardous items such as batteries go into triple-layer containers. Real-time tracking ensures secure transit to facilities. All drivers are trained on spill response.
- e-Logs: Track waste weight and pickup times.
- Thermal control: Stops chemical degradation during transport.
Step 3: Advanced Recycling and Recovery
Infrared scanners sort plastics by type, while magnets extract metals. Aluminum scrap recovery hits 98%—20% above the industry average. Every step is documented for audits.
- Recovery reports: Display recovery rates by material category.
- Closed-loop systems: Feed materials back into local manufacturing.
This end-to-end solution turns waste into resources without landfill reliance. At each stage, businesses gain transparency and compliance.
Benefits of Choosing Advance Recycling
Sustainability shouldn’t strain your budget or the planet. Working with us unlocks both financial and environmental benefits, all while adhering to Singapore’s strict regulations.
Cost-Effective and Eco-Friendly Solutions
We cut operational costs up to 30% via waste-to-energy. For instance, 1 ton of plastic can power 50 HDB flats for one day.
Businesses also gain carbon credits through certified e-waste disposal. This turns compliance into a revenue stream, eligible within Singapore’s carbon trading mechanisms.
Stay Compliant in Singapore
We simplify the Resource Sustainability Act requirements. Digital trails offer round-the-clock access to compliance records, spanning the full chain from pickup to processing.
We provide the following solutions:
- Automatic reports tailored for NEA inspections.
- Hazardous material handling certified by SCAL.
- Real-time tracking that helps avoid penalties.
Serving Businesses Across Industries
There’s no one-size-fits-all in waste management; each sector needs tailored strategies. We tailor systems to manage sector-specific challenges, covering high-volume scrap and secure office paper disposal alike.
Industrial & Manufacturing
Manufacturing facilities need strong solutions for heavy streams. We recover 95% of automotive metal scrap via closed loops, while semiconductor clients benefit from hazardous material containment.
- Semiconductor waste: Handled securely: wafers and chemical byproducts.
- Auto metal scrap: Melt, reform, and reuse steel alloys.
- Custom schedules: Construction sites daily; warehouses weekly.
Retail and Office Waste Management
Retail has packaging volume; offices focus on data security. Cardboard compactors and secure shredders are deployed.
Program | Retail Sector | Office Sector |
---|---|---|
Frequency | Twice weekly | Monthly schedule |
Key Materials | Plastic film, boxes | Paper and e-waste |
Special Features | Baling machines | Certified data destruction |
Fortune 500 regional HQs rely on our audit-ready tracking. F&B sites trim costs 25% via optimized schedules.
Sustainability’s Role in Recycling
With limited landfill space, sustainable practices are critical in Singapore. With Semakau Landfill projected to fill by 2035, improper disposal increases ecological risk and costs. Responsible recovery converts this challenge into opportunity.
Reducing Environmental Risks
Each ton of recycled plastic prevents 2kg of marine debris. We divert over 3,000 tons per year—equal to 25 football fields of ocean waste.
Hazardous materials like lithium batteries pose fire risks if landfilled. We use certified processing to neutralize risks and recover valuable metals.
Supporting a Circular Economy
Upcycling turns discarded electronics into urban furniture. Partner workshops turn circuit boards into benches at 15 HDB hubs.
With Tuas Nexus, we convert food waste into biogas—powering 200+ households monthly. Circular loops lengthen material life and reduce virgin inputs by 40%.
- Yearly impact: 12,000 tons CO2 reduced through recovery programs.
- Verified metrics: Third-party audited sustainability reports track progress.
- Community partnerships: Schools plus businesses join cleanup initiatives.
Technology that Powers Recycling
Recycling now uses smart systems to maximize efficiency and security. AI and blockchain are integrated in Singapore facilities for high-precision recovery.
Cutting-Edge Sorting and Processing
AI optical scanners deliver 99.5% purity—well above manual sorting. Using hyperspectral imaging, plastics are identified in milliseconds.
Partnering with NTU improves polymer recovery via enzymatic breakdown. This green chemistry approach extracts raw materials without toxic byproducts.
- Blockchain ensures traceability end-to-end
- Electromagnetic separation achieves 98% metal recovery
- Robotic systems manage hazardous items including lithium batteries
Securing Data During E-Waste Processing
Corporate IT assets require military-grade data wiping certified by IMDA. A three-pass overwrite meets Singapore’s strict cybersecurity standards.
Audit trails include serialized destruction certificates. Devices go through:
- Inspecting hardware for data components
- Degaussing of magnetic media
- End shredding down to 2mm particles
Our R&D continually tests new techniques against encryption. This ensures compliance as storage technology evolves.
