What is circular economy?

The circular economy is an economic model designed to maximize the use of resources and minimize waste by promoting the continuous reuse, recycling, and refurbishment of products and materials. Unlike the traditional linear economy, which follows a “take, make, dispose” pattern, the circular economy is based on the principles of sustainability and aims to create a closed-loop system. In a circular economy, products, materials, and resources are kept in use for as long as possible, and waste is minimized through recycling and other methods.

How do I know if something is recyclable?

In New Zealand, the recyclability of items is typically determined by the local recycling facilities and councils. Recycling guidelines can vary across regions, so it’s important to check with your local council or waste management facility to get specific information for your area. Here are some general steps you can take to determine if something is recyclable in New Zealand:

  • Check with Your Local Council: General household recycling typically take glass bottles & jars, paper & cardboard, aluminum & tin cans, and plastics. However, it is best to check with your local council if you are unsure.
  • Review Recycling Symbols: Plastics 1, 2 & 5 can be recycled in your recycling bin, while soft plastics can be taken to a local drop off location to be recycled.

Remember that recycling practices can change, and it’s essential to stay updated with the latest information from your local council. If in doubt, contact your council directly or consult their website for the most accurate and current recycling guidelines in your specific region of New Zealand.

What are sustainable certifications?

Sustainable certifications are credentials awarded to products, services, or organizations that meet specific environmental, social, and economic criteria. These certifications are designed to help consumers make informed choices by identifying products and practices that align with sustainability principles. Several organisations and standards bodies issue certifications based on various aspects of sustainability.
