Foreword from the Department

The Department of Environmental Affairs and Development Planning initiated a strategy to the recycling Economy in 2007 with the aim of contributing towards economic growth and job creation in the Western Cape.

The “Buy Recycled forms an integral part of the strategy aimed at diverting waste from our overfilled landfills in the province. The campaign also serves as reminder that we are discarding valuable resources, which can have tremendous economic benefits for our society if the waste material is recycled and introduced into the value chain again.

Furthermore, the manufacture of products with recycled content requires less energy than products made strictly with virgin material. It therefore reduces the amount o f green house gas emissions and has less impact on climate change.

A Recycled Products Catalogue was developed and launched in 2008 as part of a marketing campaign to stimulate the demand for recycled material. This catalogue was well received by the public and recycling industry. To build on the success of the 2008 catalogue the Depart-ment has updated the catalogue, which will be marketed and distrib-uted throughout the Western Cape.

This 2009 catalogue will make it easier to find and buywhich will do the least harm to the environment when they are produced. Buying these products means acting on a worldwide mindset change, which recognizes that we need to save our planet by living more sustainably.

By supporting the principles of the sustainable triple bottom line we contribute as citizens in realising a golden opportunity for economic renewal and growth in the face of the current global This will undoubtedly benefit citizens in our province.

Welcome!

In it you will nd a range of items for homeware, garden, outdoor, clothing and accessories - made of waste materi-als recovered in the Western Cape and recycled into new unique products.

The product selection process included advertisements in the regional press calling for product listing, research with recycling companies and referrals from contacts and stakeholders in the industry.

Buying recycled saves on new materials and energy re-quired for mining, processing and transport – which in turn reduces carbon and methane greenhouse gas emissions and climate impacts.

Use this catalogue as a handy guide to closing the loop as part of your contribution to the community and environ-ment.

2Wise2Waste

The “ Buy recycled “Campaign is about stimulating the Recycling Economy and forms part o f the Department’s 2Wise2Waste eco- efciency programme which promotes resource efciency by reducing our impact o n natural resources, energy efciency and climate change.

The programme has the following objectives: • To promote the efcient use of raw materials, water and energy which will reduce the carbon footprint; • To change behaviour through knowledge sharing, education and awareness.

The programme has both an internal and external focus and com-prises of the following:• Recycling Economy Programme which focus on securing of the supply of recovered waste material and to promote the demand for products made from recycled material;• Town Competition which promotes and celebrates sustainable waste management practices within municipalities;• Waste Management in Education which focus on the training of educators to bring about to the learners via the curriculum how to manage their waste sustainably;• Development of a Green Procurement Policy for provincial gov-ernment w ill ensure that goods and services which are p rocured will be more environmentally friendly and therefore have a lesser impact on the environment; and • Internal focus on the Departments of the Provincial Government to reduce the environmental impacts of operations by promoting ef-cient resource use through behaviour change, recovering of waste material and the retrotting of buildings.

The recycling loop

BUYING RECYCLED HAS MANY BENEFITS.When you close the loop and buy products made from recycled ma-terials you save energy, prevent pollution and create employment.

Making products from recycled ma-terials saves between 35 to 90 per cent o f the energy that i s needed to extract, rene and manufacture products from new raw materials.

Closing the loop also reduces the amount of pollutants and toxins re-leased from energy generation.

It is estimated that ten times more jobs are associated w ith recycling and the manufacturing of goods from recycled products than withwaste disposal.

Look out for products withrecycled content when you buy, and recycle and reduce your en-vironmental impact at work and home.
