Among the 2,600 tonnes of paper produced In Hong Kong every day, only 29% was eventually recycled. Is recycling sustainable, both for the environment and the business itself?
Mr. Harold Yip, the founder of Mil Mill, Hong Kong’s first pulp mill that recycles beverage cartons, will give us an overview of the local recycling industry and share his own experience of turning waste paper into toilet rolls and paper towels.
What is behind the 'Made in HK’ recycled toilet rolls? How can the recycling industry be innovative? Join this seminar and discuss circular economy inside the recycling industry with Harold!
香港每日生產2600噸廢紙，當中只有29%被回收。「循環再造」是否一門既可為香港減廢、又能自負盈虧的生意？
香港首間紙包飲品盒回收漿廠「Mil MIll 喵坊」的創辦人葉文琪先生將在講座中分享本地回收業的現況，以及其把廢紙回收並製成環保再生廁紙卷的旅程。一卷「香港製造」的環保廁紙背後承載著什麼理念？回收行業有創新的空間嗎？歡迎你與葉先生一同探討造紙業的循環經濟。
