Last month, at the Plastics Recycling Show India (PRS), our Co-founder Gurashish Singh Sahni joined a panel alongside industry leaders to unpack what it will take to turn India’s circular economy vision into sustained action. ETAuto and businessline picked up key insights from the panel on what will strengthen India’s recycling landscape: ✅ Localising EPR frameworks to reflect India’s realities and include its informal ecosystem. ✅ Integrating the informal recycling network to unlock its economic and social potential. ✅ Using digital tools like IoT, AI, and robotic sorting to enhance efficiency and traceability. ✅ Revisiting the 18% GST on recycled inputs to make circular business models more viable. ✅ Strengthening urban capacity and incentivising compliance for more effective recycling systems. We’re proud to see these perspectives featured in two leading publications, helping advance a national dialogue on making recycling more systemic, transparent, and equitable. Catch the full conversation on what’s shaping the future of circularity in India.👇 🔗 ETAuto: https://lnkd.in/dEjKmTjA 🔗 The Hindu Business Line: https://lnkd.in/dii3pM_t #MediaFeature #SustainabilityDialogue #ThoughtLeadership #GST #ExtendedProducerResponsibility #EPR #Recycling

Building A World Without Waste
About us
At ReCircle, we are rethinking the impact of waste on our planet and its people. Founded in 2016 by Rahul Nainani and Gurashish Singh Sahni, ReCircle is building a future where the word 'waste' becomes obsolete, and every used material is treated as a resource. So far, we’ve diverted over 261,000 metric tonnes of waste through a robust pan-India network spanning 310 cities, while providing dignified livelihoods to our 3,590+ Safai Saathis who are powering India’s recovery ecosystem. With businesses, we build closed-loop ecosystems through plastic credits, EPR compliance, and zero-waste programs, powered by ClimaOne, our proprietary platform that makes data, traceability, and impact visible in real time. From Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages to Mondelez, progressive brands trust us to help them go beyond compliance. With our recycling facility, we are advancing recovery systems to double down on our mission of turning every discarded material into a resource that feeds the circular economy. From plastic to paper, textiles to glass we’re giving every material another life. And every hand powering the system, a better one. Because there’s a future in waste and we refuse to throw it away.

Before signing off for the holidays, we couldn’t resist soaking in a little Diwali magic together. ✨ That included laughs echoing across the office, sweets being passed around, and last-minute decorations being put up. Exactly the kind of chaos that feels right this time of the year. See you after the break, rested, recharged, and ready to close more loops. Happy Diwali from all of us at ReCircle! 💛 #TeamReCircle #Diwali2025 #DiwaliCelebrations #WorkplaceCulture

We usually work across different teams, but occasionally we come together to reconnect, share updates, and celebrate the little wins. Our #ReConnect was one of those moments where we caught up on projects, swapped stories, and enjoyed some light-hearted games (and even some good snacks). These simple moments of connection make all the difference in how we grow and move forward together. 🌱 #TeamCulture #careersinsustainability #ClimateJobs #Sustainabilityjobs #Hiring
Last week at ReCircle, we took a break from the everyday rush to reconnect as a team. 💚 During our ReConnect session, we shared updates, celebrated wins, and got a clearer sense of what everyone’s working on, followed by some light-hearted games and plenty of laughs. Work, after all, isn’t only about deliverables and deadlines. It’s also about connecting, exchanging ideas, and cherishing the simple moments that make collaboration meaningful. 🌱 Grateful for a team that makes these moments possible and for the chance to step back, reflect, and move forward together. ✨ #LifeAtReCircle #Teamwork #WorkCulture #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #Culture #Hiring

If we want to make circularity the norm, we first have to make it accessable to everyone. That’s why we partnered with WeWork across 11 offices in Mumbai and 3 offices in Pune to make it easier for people to drop off their pre-loved clothes right where they work. All pre-loved clothes will be sent to our Textile Recovery Facility in Dombivli, where they will be carefully sorted by our Safai Saathis. From there, each garment finds a new purpose through recycling, upcycling, or rewear markets. 🔄 For us, it’s about bringing circularity closer to where people are. But for the WeWork community, it’s a simple way to part with their clothes thoughtfully and responsibly. 💚 If you work out of a WeWork office, bring in your old clothes today. The collection is still happening! And if you’re a workplace looking to enable textile recovery at your premises, reach out to us: 📩 [email protected] | 📞 +91 9004240004 | 🌐 recircle.in/contact-us #WeWorkIndia #TextileRecovery #Recycling #Upcycling #TextileCircularity

We’ve always believed that the best kind of awareness is the kind you can see, shape, and create with your own hands. 💡 At Hindustan Unilever’s Project Circular Bharat workshop, Kinjal Kansabanik and Arpita Kamble from our team put this belief into action through a hands-on DIY upcycling session, where students picked up pieces of discarded waste and turned them into something of value. ♻ Because that’s where circularity truly begins: in seeing worth where others see waste. It was incredible to be part of this initiative alongside The Recycling Company, United Way Mumbai, Banyan Nation, and PLAN Foundation, each showing students a different lens of what change can look like. 🙌 Thank you, Hindustan Unilever for bringing so many passionate young minds together under one roof, and to every student who rolled up their sleeves and reminded us that the future of circularity looks a lot more hopeful. 🌍 #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #DIYWorkshop #Circularity #EnvironmentalAwareness #ClimateAction #WasteManagement #SocialImpact #GreenInnovation
