Identification

Collaborative Recycling is a start-up from social and solidarity economy that provides a solution to optimize reuse of furniture, equipment and materials with innovative technology.

The linear economy is driving us toward environmental problems. Unfortunately, it is often easier to throw away a product and buy a new one, no matter if it is still usable or not. This technology and services use a circular approach and sway behaviour away from “buy-use-toss-buy” cycle. When others see waste, we see resources. Collaborative Recycling supports private or public corporations to help them to decrease the amount of waste produced and handle the whole process (inventory, reuse, move, tracking We created a webapp to simplify inventory, an online donation platform to match supply and demand and a traceability tool to keep a record of items redistributed. By giving for free to recipients from the network (local association, social buisnesses, artists’ collectives etc.), clients give second life to their items.

Implementation Stories

Collaborative Recycling by Corecyclage
Implemented by City of Paris in Paris (France) in 2018

The City of Paris has been testing this Solution since June 2018, as part of the DataCity program, which brings together industry stakeholders, startups and local authorities to study the challenges of using data to make cities smarter and better places to live for their citizens. This reuse service is a collabo- ration between Coreyclage, Paris City Hall, and Suez which offers citizens the possibility of proposing their bulky items, which can still be used, to recycling associations or individuals, ready to come and collect.

Result

In 2020, more than 25,000 objects have found a second life
