Recycling Partners of Jamaica is a non-profit organization formed as a result of a private-public sector partnership to build and support national awareness of the need to recycle. And is the designated national recycling entity by the Government of Jamaica.

The organization seeks to support the existing recycling industry, increase employment and improve the environmental footprint of local businesses and individuals by engaging in an initiative branded Recycle Now Jamaica.

The primary objective is to boost the recovery of PET bottles by 35% of the amount placed on the market by the 3rd year of operations. This is an estimated recovery of 4,690 tonnes of PET material.

The partners are the Government of Jamaica and the following private sector firms:

  • Wisynco Ltd.

  • Pepsi Jamaica Ltd.

  • Grace Kennedy Foods and Services Ltd.

  • Jamaica Beverages Ltd.

  • Lasco Manufacturing Ltd.

  • SEPROD Ltd.

  • Trade Winds Citrus Ltd.

The programme will establish satellite depots in strategic locations around the island to facilitate collection. These depots will receive the reclaimed PET bottles and will bulk and bale them so as to increase efficiencies in handling, storage and transportation. The collectors will be paid on a weight basis. PET bottles purchased from collectors will be weighed, baled and shipped overseas for further processing.

Recycling Partners of Jamaica is seeking to work with NGOs, Foundations and other entities with a track record for recycling and environmental management. It is seeking to access groups and individuals who can boost the recovery rate of the PET bottles throughout the island.
