WHAT WE DO
Reclaim Nepal is transforming Nepal’s plastic pollution crisis into eco-friendly construction materials. We divert waste from streets and rivers, converting 100% recycled plastic into Reclaim Durable Boards. These waterproof, eco-friendly construction materials (available in standard 8ft×4ft sheets) are an alternative to traditional plywood and cement board for everything from construction to furniture.
Nepal generates 2,000 tons of solid waste daily, including 280-300 tons of plastic. Over 70 tons of low-grade and multi-layer plastics lack buyers and is not collected, so they're burned or dumped—polluting air, water, and soil.
Reclaim built a complete value chain to solve this problem.
Reclaim brought proven technology from India to establish a complete plastic recycling value chain that:
Closes the waste loop with sustainable construction materials
Reduces environmental impact and cleans rivers
Creates decent jobs for youth and women
Stimulates local entrepreneurship
Produces locally to cut emissions
Delivers returns for investors
