Revolutionising Plastic Waste

PVC and HDPE are major contributors to plastic waste in landfills, commonly used in construction, manufacturing, agriculture, and healthcare. Their environmental impact can be substantial if not managed properly. At WM New Zealand, we’re turning this challenge into an opportunity for sustainable change.

Through our partnership with PRNZ, a joint venture with Aliaxis Marley, we collect and transform PVC and HDPE pipe into granules for new pipe production, diverting plastic from landfills and reducing virgin plastic use.

Our comprehensive waste recovery services prioritise recycling and sustainability. By partnering with us, you can reduce landfill waste and carbon emissions, making a positive impact on the environment.  Let us support your sustainability efforts and protect our planet for future generations.

How it Works

PVC and HDPE waste, mainly offcuts and surplus materials, should be source-separated for efficient recovery.

Recovery

These plastics can be recycled into valuable raw materials for new products, diverting plastic from landfills and reducing the need for virgin plastics.

Specialised Bins

WM New Zealand provides a range of specialised bins for safe on-site storage and effective recycling.
