At Teak Place Estate, we’re not just committed to sustainable living—we’re setting new standards in waste management for South Africa. Our innovative practices showcase how we handle waste sustainably and efficiently, and we are excited to share them with you.
Comprehensive Waste Separation
Each household at Teak Place Estate plays a vital role in our waste management system by separating waste into recyclable, non-recyclable, and organic categories. This method ensures that every type of waste is handled appropriately and sustainably, significantly reducing our environmental impact.
Onsite Sorting Yard
Our dedicated onsite sorting yard processes all waste efficiently. Recyclables are collected by our provider, and we even receive a rebate, incentivising our community to stay committed to recycling. This closed-loop system promotes a sustainable lifestyle for all residents, encouraging responsible waste management practices.
Innovative Non-Recyclable Waste Disposal
Non-recyclable waste at Teak Place Estate is not simply discarded. Instead, it is incinerated, and the resulting ash is utilised as a fertiliser component, promoting the circular use of materials. This innovative approach minimises landfill waste and contributes to soil health, turning waste into a valuable resource.
Organic Waste Utilisation
Organic waste at Teak Place Estate is never wasted. It goes to our pigs or is composted, enriching our soil and supporting our sustainable farming practices. This process not only reduces waste but also promotes local food production and healthy soil, fostering a more self-sufficient community.
Teak Place Estate is proud to lead the charge in waste management, proving that with dedication and innovative practices, we can make a significant difference. Join us in our mission to create a greener, cleaner South Africa!
Thank you for being a part of our community and supporting our commitment to sustainability. Together, we can make a positive impact on our environment.
