Summary

A Kiwi startup, Recorp, is shaking up Australia’s recycling scene with its ReCan85 — a can made from 85% recycled aluminum and powered by 100% renewable energy. Their closed-loop system keeps aluminum circulating locally across Australasia, even tracking each can’s origin online to boost consumer awareness. Despite New Zealand’s low recycling rates, CEO Bruce Parton sees this as a catalyst for change — and their recent AFR Sustainability Leaders finalist spot proves that sustainability doesn’t have to sacrifice profitability. This young Aussie-Kiwi disruptor shows how innovation and eco-conscious manufacturing can go hand in hand. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
