UGANDA INDUSTRIAL INSTITUTE HAILS KAVEERA RECYCLING BI PRODUCTS.
Industrial experts amid them the environmentalists,took time to explore one of the giant Kaveera Recycling Industry,Pipeline Design and Foam Industries [PDF] at the outskirts of Kampala city in Luzira.
It was a follow up of KCCA organised climate change summit at Serena hotel where RECYCLING Plastics/Kaveera was viewed as the utmost solution towards what experts call the uncalled for kaveera ban talk since 2006.
instead of ban talk everytime,the environmental experts including the UN country director recommended sorting at source waste management and mass involvement of local plastics industries in management of their own waste.
Most of all,the team appreciated the recycling industrial machines that are worth billions of money under the roof of this factory.
The recycling industries have multiple recycling lines that end with a kaveera drier as viewed above
On the production part, as viewed from pictures,thy were shocked that most of the plastic household utensils eg plates and egg trays were being manufactured from kaveera recycled pellets.
Other products from kaveera recycling are electricity conduit pipes,Culvert pipes, roofing and construction sheets,rain water harvest tanks with Genetex enterprises,plastic packages for body cream and other packages at Pipeline Industrial company etc. Plastics industries in Uganda are 37 and 20 of them do Mass kaveera recycling.people who pick it from environment are handsomely paid per kilo grammes.
Uganda must follow other developing countries and protect its own industry for inclusive benefits such as tax revenues,much needed jobs for uneducated Ugandans and supporting social sectors such as Umeme,communication companies that benefit in billions contributions for services offered to these companies.
NOTE: Environmental management goes hand in hand with Industrial development.The two aspects benefit human survival.
