When we began our business journey in 2002 our vision was to provide the South African market with a comprehensive approach to managing waste. We set out to offer a more viable and sustainable alternative to the waste to landfill based strategy that was prevalent in the market. Today, we can proudly say that Oricol has successfully improved its diversion of waste from landfill disposal from 20% in 2008 to over 70% in By focusing on reuse, recycling and recovery Oricol is able to demonstrate a lower carbon footprint to the waste generator. We aim to preserve valuable resources by focusing on waste reduction as well as the sorting, processing and marketing of recyclables. As a last resort, we dispose of ultimate waste at landfill or dispose of it in the safest manner possible. Our Resource Recovery division provides the complete range of services for the separation, storage and recycling of wastes generated from industrial, commercial and municipal clients. With depots in Johannesburg, Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage and Durban, we are well placed to offer our core services, which include hiring waste containers and collection and recovery of waste. Our liquid waste treatment plants and material recycling facilities in Durban, Port Elizabeth and Johannesburg (Spartan) render both liquid and solid wastes suitable for recovery or safe disposal. Making the world a safer, cleaner place is not just a job. As our source separation programmes improve, so more and more waste is being treated through our recycling and recovery processes. This, in turn, leads to enhanced developments which enables us to better use waste as a resource. Developing specialised reclamation and recycling processes enables us to help an increasing number of clients cut their carbon emissions. Tailor-made on-site integrated contracts allow businesses and organisations such as universities to focus on their core activities without having to allocate resources to sort and reduce waste, recycle, clean and hire expensive cleaning equipment. Our industrial services help clients by cutting their costs and production downtime while mitigating the risk to their businesses. Food and beverage manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies and logistics facilities are just some of the industry sectors that rely on Oricol for complete peace of mind when it comes to secure product destruction. At Oricol we pride ourselves on our passion for sustainable environmental solutions. Our competitive advantage lies in our ability to see waste differently. But rather as a valuable secondary resource that can be reintroduced into the economy, boost growth, create jobs and make the world a cleaner, safer place.
