The Biji Biji(seeds in Malay) Intiative the new way of recycling waste

by | 26-11-2015 14:57 recommendations 0

Biji-Biji Initiative – a Malaysian social enterprise that champions progressive ideas and sustainable living through the creative reuse of discarded materials.

The social enterprise?s core business is creating sustainable design concepts and items using green technology, effective waste management methodology and creative upcycling of discarded materials, its website said.

The products sold on the website include, bags and pencil cases, made with at least 70 per cent recycled materials, sourced mostly in Malaysia.

Aside from upcycled products, Biji-Biji also runs workshops and events related to waste management and green technology.

The Biji-Biji Initiative has brought new life to the word of recycle and we have always looked at recycled items being of inferior quality and also have limited usage but this Malaysian Initiative has sparked interest as well as created a market for recycled items that might change the perception of people towards recycled items.

    Looks like a promising initiative, Rakeesh. Thanks for the report.
    High end recycled goods are an attraction for the buyers & are motivation for the producers. The market must accept them & demand has to be there.
    Hope for the best.
