A critical step to building circularity is increasing the value of recovered plastic which stimulates greater investment in collection and sortation, and pulls material currently lost to landfill, incineration and the environment back into the recycling stream. Kamilo’s innovative technology platform responds to the need to improve the market value of recovered plastics and provide low cost, transparent and trusted techniques to measure, track, and verify the sustainable management of reusable resources. Kamilo’s system also quantifies the prevention of plastic pollution, the avoidance of greenhouse gases (GHGs) associated with fossil fuel production and the manufacturing of virgin plastic, and the space saved through the avoidance of landfilling. Kamilo confirms that the facilities in their network meet minimum environmental stewardship criteria to qualify as a Kamilo partner; they track recovered plastic and validate Post-Consumer Resin (PCR) content in repurposed products; they provide increased value to recovered plastic while ensuring it does not pollute the environment; and they provide B2B GIS data-analytics to enable lowest-carbon transport emission matches between plastics supply and demand.
