a digital platform supporting a circular economy for plastic waste

Digital tools to reduce plastic waste in our environment

Wastebase supports a better lifecycle for plastic where traditional solid waste management faces systemic constraints.

Wastebase DEAL

Creating fairer, more circular markets for plastic waste.

Our Wastebase DEAL app connects informal waste collectors with local recyclers and reprocessors.

Collectors get transparent pricing and transaction execution. Reprocessors get improved quality and consistency of supply. Read one collector's story here.

Wastebase DATA

Crowdsourcing data about where plastic waste ends up.

Our Wastebase DATA app helps campaigners and researchers record and analyse data from waste & brand audits: encouraging producers and consumers to be accountable for the plastic they make, use & discard.
