District-based Recycling Programme

Cornerstone RVM

The Highlights

Consider having our first ever reverse vending machine (“RVM”) introduced in Hong Kong since 2019, people in the community starts getting aware of plastic bottle recycling. To echo the attention and the market trend of smart recycling, Home Affairs Department (“HAD”) Central and Western District Office (“CWDO”) has considered introducing the recent models of RVM in the Central and Western district to support and promote plastic recycling.
10 RVMs have been placed at different premises for 6 months within Central and Western District where people are easily to get accessed to PET#1 bottle recycling.
