Full Recycling Service Explained

Businesses in Singapore face mounting pressure to manage waste efficiently. A end-to-end recycling service streamlines this process, covering everything from pickup to final processing. It keeps materials in production cycles and cuts landfill use.

All-Inclusive Waste Solutions

Our end-to-end system includes:

  • Collection: Regular pickups to ensure consistent removal.
  • Separation: Sophisticated separation for plastics, metals, and e-waste.
  • Material Processing: Responsible processing into reusable inputs.
  • Documentation: Detailed reports for regulatory compliance.

Here’s how standard and tailored plans differ:

Aspect Baseline Plan Custom Plan
Frequency Once per week Flexible (daily or monthly)
Accepted Materials Basic (paper, plastic) Specialized (e-waste, chemicals)
Reporting Summary reports Comprehensive, audit-ready analytics

Tailored for Commercial and Industrial Needs

Offices and factories have different needs. Factories benefit from volume-based pricing, while corporate clients prioritize convenience. As examples:

  • A food producer recycles 5 tons monthly and trims costs by 20%.
  • An electronics plant processes 500+ devices each quarter securely to meet NEA standards.

Audit processes are simplified by real-time tracking. Every step is documented, from pickup weights to final disposal methods.

What We Recycle

From old smartphones to factory scrap, many materials can get 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 process responsibly:

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

Our equipment captures reusable metals and neutralizes toxins.

Plastics and Metals: From Scrap to Reusable Products

Infrared scanners let our systems identify plastic types (PET, HDPE, LDPE). Metal recovery reaches 98% purity using electromagnetic separation. Frequent materials are:

  • Manufacturing-derived ABS plastic.
  • Aluminum plus steel alloys (melted for reuse).

Complex Items: Batteries, Steel, Etc.

Complex items call for customized approaches:

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

All materials follow a documented chain of custody to remain compliant.

How Our Full Service Works

Efficiency begins with a structured process. From office paper to industrial scrap, we ensure responsible recovery. Using three steps, we maximize efficiency and meet NEA requirements.

Stage 1: Collect and Segregate

GPS-tracked vehicles with weight sensors optimize pickup routes. Teams deploy color-coded bins to separate plastics, metals, and hazardous items. That cuts contamination and accelerates disposal.

  • Sensor bins: Sensors alert crews when bins are full.
  • Regulatory labels: Labels aligned with NEA waste guidelines.

Stage 2: Safe Transport and Handling

We pack hazardous materials, including batteries, in triple-layer containers. Real-time tracking maintains secure facility transit. Drivers receive spill-response training.

  • Digital records: Track waste weight and pickup times.
  • Temp control: Stops chemical degradation during transport.

Stage 3: Advanced 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.
  • Circular loops: Return materials to local production.

This end-to-end solution turns waste into resources without landfill reliance. Companies benefit from transparency and compliance throughout.

Why Choose Advance Recycling

Sustainable waste solutions shouldn’t break the bank—or the planet. Our partnership delivers eco and financial advantages, while staying aligned to Singapore’s strict regulations.

Green Solutions with Strong ROI

Waste-to-energy initiatives reduce operational costs by as much as 30%. 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 streamline compliance with the Resource Sustainability Act. Digital trails offer round-the-clock access to compliance records, spanning the full chain from pickup to processing.

We provide the following solutions:

  • Automated NEA inspection reporting.
  • Hazardous material handling certified by SCAL.

Why Sustainability Matters in Recycling

With limited landfill space, sustainable practices are critical in Singapore. Semakau Landfill is projected to reach capacity by 2035, improper disposal increases ecological risk and costs. Responsible recovery turns this challenge into opportunity.

Lowering Ecological Risks

Recycling one ton of plastic averts 2kg of marine debris. Annually, 3,000+ tons diverted—about 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.

Driving Circularity

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

With Tuas Nexus, we convert food waste into biogas—powering 200+ households monthly. Closed loops extend material use and cut virgin inputs by 40%.

  • Impact per year: CO2 reduced by 12,000 tons through recovery.
  • Validated metrics: Third-party audits verify sustainability progress.
  • Community partnerships: Businesses and schools team up for cleanup efforts.

Advanced Technology in Recycling

Today’s recycling relies on smart systems for 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.

Partnering with NTU improves polymer recovery via enzymatic breakdown. This approach extracts raw materials minus toxic byproducts.

  • Blockchain provides traceability from collection to resale
  • Electromagnetic separators recover metals with 98% efficiency
  • Robotics handle hazardous items such as lithium batteries

Data Security in E-Waste

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:

  1. Physical inspection for data storage components
  2. Magnetic media degaussing
  3. Final shredding to 2mm particles

R&D teams test evolving methods to address encryption. Ensuring compliance as storage technology advances.
