Arena Recycling Industry
Arena Recycling Industry collects plastic waste from beaches in Dar es Salaam and produces building materials such as Eco-Bricks, paving blocks, and tiles for the construction of affordable houses, toilets, and other buildings. These eco-bricks are waterproof and two times harder and more durable compared to normal bricks. They are anti-fungal and anti-corrosive. The market demand for these products is very high due to their high quality.
To produce high-quality products moldings and crusher machines that have the power to ignite are required. To secure these machines we got funds from UNDP through SEED SPACE COMPETITION that enabled us to fabricate some machines. An extruder machine was fabricated locally at Small Industry Development Organization (SIDO) and Vocational Education Training Agency (VETA). Also, technology and innovative ideas are needed in order to produce products that can meet the market demand.
Molding and crushers can be fabricated locally, but the challenge is to get technicians with experience in the technology required. To meet the high demand from customers, increasing production capacity is mandatory and it can be achieved through investing in machines. Also, the production of high-quality products can be achieved by using clean raw materials.
