Hulladek, a Kolkata-based recycling company, is gearing up for an ambitious national expansion. They aim to collect a staggering 20,000 tonnes of e-waste within the next three years, making a significant dent in India's growing electronic waste problem.
Currently, Hulladek offers e-waste collection services for both households and large corporations. They boast an impressive 10% of their collections coming directly from individual homes, highlighting their effective doorstep pick-up mechanism. Notably, they also partner with major companies like Tata, Nestle, and PepsiCo, demonstrating their reach within the corporate sector.
Nandan Mall, Hulladek's Founder and CMD, emphasizes the "reduce, reuse, recycle" mantra when discussing their mission. This holistic approach extends beyond just collecting e-waste. They offer data destruction services and have even ventured into plastic waste management in collaboration with LYNQ, demonstrating their commitment to broader environmental responsibility.
The company's expansion plans involve establishing collection centers across the country and creating a robust national network. This will not only facilitate wider e-waste collection but also create employment opportunities. Notably, Hulladek actively collaborates with civic bodies, fostering a collaborative approach to tackling the challenge.
Hulladek's initiative is a commendable step towards addressing India's ever-growing e-waste problem. Their pan-India expansion and ambitious collection target hold immense potential for positive environmental impact. By promoting responsible e-waste management, Hulladek serves as a valuable example for other companies and individuals alike.
