Funding for organisations in the resource recovery sector

⁠⁠⁠This program aims to increase processing capability and capacity to improve quality of materials for re-manufacture and/or use of one or more of the following materials subject to the national waste export ban:

• mixed plastics that are not of a single resin/polymer type and/or further sorting, cleaning and processing is required before use in manufacturing
• single resin/polymer plastics that have not been reprocessed (e.g. cleaned and baled PET bottles)
• mixed and unsorted paper and cardboard
• all whole used tyres or in pieces larger than 150 mm, including baled tyres, but not including bus, truck and aviation tyres exported for retreading to a verified retreading facility.

• purchasing, installing and commissioning new equipment or technology or upgrading existing facilities to increase domestic reprocessing capacity and/or increase use of recycled content in manufacturing and/or infrastructure
• capital purchases (e.g. infrastructure or equipment including mobile equipment to process materials on-site)
• construction of buildings to house recycling infrastructure (from the laying of a slab to commissioning).
