There is
an unorganised or informal
sector of waste pickers —mostly mi-
grants, illegal citizens and Bangladeshis.
We source our raw materials from waste
pickers and
kabaddiwalas
and make
interesting things out of it, like laptop
cover and diary jackets out of waste
flat tyre. Recycling helps stop material
from reaching landfill. With such dense
production of material and objects we
produce 9000 metric tonne of garbage
every year.
Upcycling Waste to Resources

We understand
that sustain-
able future can be attained only
through behavioural change.
Our work is based on two val-
ues: need versus demand and
the inter-connectedness of the
problems. We collaborate with
organisations, policy makers
and people to work on eco-
friendly technology solutions.
