Annually in Australia, over two billion used disposable diapers go to landfill. They release greenhouse gases and can take up to 500 years to break down and are part of a growing global problem.
In 2019 after three years of R&D Kelland Environmental Technology Ltd, was established with DiaperRecycle and NappyRecycle being the trading businesses. Founded by Clarke Kelland, Oliver Kelland and Cynthia Wallis Barnicoat, DiaperRecycle diverts nappies from landfill, recycling them and making new products for existing markets.
They separate the plastic and the fibre in our process. The high quality plastic goes to plastic recyclers. From the fibre we’re making a super absorbent cat litter.
DiaperRecycle cat litter is half the weight of other fibrous litters, so will release less carbon. If your cat uses 1L of our litter it will save 1kg of climate changing emissions. It’s also flushable in most systems. And importantly – extending the life of a waste and creating a new resource from it!
DiaperRecycle. cat litter was tested by Melbourne cats and it’s popular with catteries and domestic users.
