What Is a Full Recycling Service?

Singapore businesses face increasing pressure to manage waste efficiently. A end-to-end recycling service streamlines this process, covering everything from pickup to final processing. It returns materials to production and reduces dependence on landfills.

Comprehensive Waste Management Solutions

Our end-to-end system includes:

  • Collection: Timetabled pickups to keep removal consistent.
  • Separation: High-precision separation of plastics, metals, and e-waste.
  • Material Processing: Safe conversion into reusable raw materials.
  • Reporting: Detailed reports for regulatory compliance.

Here’s how standard and tailored plans differ:

Category Baseline Plan Customized Plan
Frequency Weekly schedule Flexible (daily or monthly)
Material Scope Core items (paper, plastic) Specialized (e-waste, chemicals)
Analytics Basic summaries Comprehensive, audit-ready analytics

Tailored for Commercial and Industrial Needs

Offices and factories have different needs. Factories gain from volume pricing; corporate clients prioritize convenience. As examples:

  • A food producer recycles 5 tons monthly and trims costs by 20%.
  • A tech factory securely processes 500+ devices per quarter, meeting NEA rules.

Real-time tracking features make audits simple. From pickup weights to final disposal, everything is documented.

Materials We Recycle

Old smartphones to factory scrap—many materials deserve a second life. We manage diverse streams to ensure safe, efficient recovery. Our processes meet Singapore’s strict environmental standards.

Electronics Recycling Done Right

Discarded electronics contain hazardous items like mercury and lead. We safely process:

  • CRT displays and lithium-ion batteries (leak tests applied).
  • Data devices (NEA-certified destruction).
  • Ni-Cd batteries plus circuit boards (manual dismantling).

Our equipment captures reusable metals and neutralizes toxins.

Turning Plastic and Metal Scrap into Reusable Goods

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

  • ABS plastic generated by manufacturing.
  • Aluminum and steel alloys (melted for industrial reuse).

Complex Items: Batteries, Steel, Etc.

Complex items need tailored solutions:

  • Lead-acid batteries processed with neutralization and lead recovery.
  • Stainless steel sorted by grade for smelting.
  • Devices with mercury: sealed vacuum extraction.

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

Process Overview — Full Recycling Service

Efficient waste handling starts with a structured process. We ensure every material—from office paper to industrial scrap—is recovered responsibly. Our three-step system maximizes efficiency while meeting Singapore’s NEA standards.

Stage 1: Collect and Segregate

GPS-tracked vehicles with weight sensors optimize pickup routes. Color-coded bins help teams separate plastics, metals, and hazardous items. This reduces contamination and speeds up disposal.

  • Smart bins: Bin sensors trigger alerts when full.
  • Compliance labels: Labels match Singapore’s waste guidelines.

Stage 2: Safe Transport and Handling

Hazardous materials like batteries are packed in triple-layer containers. Real-time tracking ensures secure transit to facilities. Drivers are trained in spill response protocols.

  • Digital logs: Record weights and pickup times.
  • Temp control: Prevents chemical degradation during transit.

Step 3 — Recycling & Recovery

Infrared scanners sort plastics by type, while magnets extract metals. Our aluminum scrap recovery reaches 98%, 20% higher than average. Every step is documented for audits.

  • Material reports: Show recovery rates by category.
  • Closed-loop systems: Reuse materials in local manufacturing.

This end-to-end solution turns waste into resources without landfill reliance. Businesses gain transparency and compliance at every stage.

Benefits of Choosing Advance Recycling

Sustainable waste solutions shouldn’t break the bank—or the planet. Working with us unlocks both financial and environmental benefits, all while adhering to Singapore’s strict regulations.

Green Solutions with Strong ROI

We cut operational costs up to 30% via waste-to-energy. For example, converting 1 ton of plastic waste generates enough energy to power 50 HDB flats for a day.

Businesses also gain carbon credits through certified e-waste disposal. That converts compliance into revenue, including eligibility under Singapore’s carbon trading schemes.

Regulatory Compliance Made Simple

We streamline compliance with the Resource Sustainability Act. Digital trails offer round-the-clock access to compliance records, covering pickup through final processing.

We provide the following solutions:

  • Automated NEA inspection reporting.
  • Hazardous material handling certified by SCAL.
  • Real-time tracking that helps avoid penalties.

Industries We Serve

Waste management isn’t one-size-fits-all—each sector demands tailored strategies. Advance Recycling adapts systems for unique challenges, whether it’s high-volume factory scrap or confidential office paper disposal.

Industrial & Manufacturing

Manufacturing facilities need strong solutions for heavy streams. Our closed-loop systems recover 95% of automotive metal scrap, and semiconductor partners gain secure hazardous containment.

  • Semiconductor streams: Handled securely: wafers and chemical byproducts.
  • Vehicle scrap: Smelting and reforming steel alloys for reuse.
  • Customized schedules: Construction sites daily; warehouses weekly.

Retail & Office Programs

Retail deals with packaging surges; offices prioritize data security. Cardboard compactors and secure shredders are deployed.

Service Retail Office Sector
Service Frequency Twice weekly Once per month
Key Materials Boxboard and plastic film Office paper, e-waste
Special Features On-site balers Certified secure shredding

Regional HQs of Fortune 500 firms rely on audit-ready tracking. Food & beverage clients cut 25% using optimized schedules.

Sustainability’s Role in Recycling

Limited landfill capacity makes sustainable practices vital in Singapore. Semakau may be full by 2035, improper disposal risks ecological damage and higher costs. Responsible recovery converts 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.

Hazardous materials like lithium batteries pose fire risks if landfilled. Through certified processing, we neutralize these threats while recovering valuable metals.

Supporting a Circular Economy

Upcycling turns discarded electronics into urban furniture. Partner workshops turn circuit boards into benches at 15 HDB hubs.

Via Tuas Nexus, food waste is converted to biogas powering 200+ households monthly. Closed loops extend material use and cut virgin inputs by 40%.

  • Yearly impact: 12,000 tons CO2 reduced through recovery programs.
  • Validated metrics: Third-party audited sustainability reports track progress.
  • Local partnerships: Schools plus businesses join cleanup initiatives.

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.

Next-Gen Sorting & Processing

AI-driven scanners hit 99.5% purity, outpacing manual methods. These systems identify plastic types in milliseconds using hyperspectral imaging.

With NTU, we enhance polymer recovery using enzymatic methods. This approach extracts raw materials minus toxic byproducts.

  • Blockchain provides traceability from collection to resale
  • 98% metal recovery via electromagnetic separators
  • Robotics handle hazardous items such as lithium batteries
