Scaling local recycling with Plastic Odyssey’s micro-factory

Scaling local recycling with Plastic Odyssey’s micro-factory

Scaling local recycling with Plastic Odyssey’s micro-factory

As part of its Now for Tomorrow programme, Heritage Resorts & Golf is co-funding Mauritius’ first micro-factory dedicated to plastic waste transformation. Built from repurposed shipping containers, the facility expected in Bel Ombre will serve as a decentralised pre-treatment hub for plastic waste.

 

The micro-factory will:

  • • Shred and sort significant volumes of plastic monthly
  • • Supply local recyclers with usable material
  • • Test a scalable model for similar sites in other regions
  • • Support internal capacity-building in waste management

 

To ensure effective integration, Ollivier Mineur, Waste Management Supervisor at Heritage Resorts & Golf, has attended a three-day Onboard Laboratory training during Plastic Odyssey’s stopover in Mauritius in April 2025. The programme covered applied recycling technologies, prototyping, and operational planning.
