This strategic initiative aims to address Sri Lanka's growing plastic and polythene waste challenge.

With Sri Lanka generating an estimated 7,000 metric tons of solid waste per day, equating to roughly 2.56 million metric tons per year, a significant portion of which consists of polythene and plastic.
