This is In recognition of the United Nations Environment Programme’s (UNEP) call for intensified endeavours to reduce waste and shift towards a circular economy as NBC’s Plastic Recycling Drive is aimed at mobilising the community and raising awareness about the importance of sustainable plastic waste management and encourage responsible plastic disposal practices.

Speaking on the initiative, packaging recovery manager, NBC, Mr. Idris Adetola, said: “at NBC, environmental sustainability and stewardship remain a priority. We firmly believe in the collective responsibility to safeguard our environment for future generations.

“The plastic recycling drive not only exemplifies our unwavering dedication to a World Without Waste but more importantly to continue to show the abundant opportunities in the circular plastic economy which is making significant economic and social impact to thousands of Nigerians.”

Adetola added that, “our plastics are 100 per cent recyclable hence they are of value however to unlock this value via recycling, we must sort our plastics and direct them into available recycling channels.
