Circular Economy Project

Zero Waste Dishwashing Trailer

Gisborne, Tairāwhiti

About this project

Waste management at events is challenging. Recyclables, single use plastic packaging and compostable packaging still have significant environmental impact.

A mobile trailer could be fitted with a range of service ware and hygienic washing facilities so that small and medium sized events can operate without single use packaging.

Seed funding would explore partnerships, design and trailer management.
