EcoKaari’s WoW Project (Waste to Wealth; an end-to-end project) where EcoKaari will upcycle the company’s donated waste plastic into products, which the company can buy at corporate rates to gift to their clients, executives, employees and others.
Through this project, the Companies under their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) or Sustainability Wing, will help us in creating a significant impact on the Environment by upcycling the single-use waste plastic and enabling Livelihoods for artisans from humble backgrounds.
We upcycle the waste plastic using the age-old craft of Charkha (spindle) and Handloom. Thus, reviving the India heritage and being an integral part of the Handicrafts Industry of India and also enabling livelihoods for women and youth as our Upcycling Process do not use any electricity, heat or chemicals!
This will also help the Companies in improving the environmental and social credentials with their consumers, investors and employees and the PR and Marketing.
How the Waste-to-Wealth (WoW) Project Works:
- Donate Your Plastic Waste: Companies contribute their pre-consumer plastic waste.
- We Upcycle It: EcoKaari transforms the waste into eco-friendly, handwoven products.
- You Give Back: Purchase these unique items at corporate rates to gift to clients, employees, and stakeholders, showcasing your commitment to sustainability.
Through the WoW Project, we not only help reduce plastic waste but also create livelihoods for artisans from marginalized communities. This initiative aligns with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and sustainability goals, allowing organizations to make a meaningful environmental and social impact.
We’ve successfully collaborated with organizations like Nestlé, ITC Limited, Britannia, Bridgestone, Fortune Oil and others under this project.
