Collect-a-Can

Collect-a-Can is dedicated to ensure that used cans and consequently tinplate, exist in harmony with the environment.
They are involved in the recovery of all scrap tinplate generated in the tinplate and can-making processes, including sludge, cut-offs (skeletons), misprints, sub-standard fills, and most importantly the recovery of used cans.
All recovered scrap and used cans are either processed to add value (de-tinning and briquetting) or prepared and sold for recycling, resulting in a complete loop, called “cradle-to-cradle”.
Collect-a-Can is a recovery as opposed to a profit driven company. The company has proven that it is self-sustainable, by managing its operations and cost structures at optimum levels – assuring the respective Southern African governments, environmentalists and the public of Collect-a-Can’s long-term stability.

SASSI

The Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative (SASSI) was initiated in November 2004 in order to inform and educate all participants in the seafood trade, from wholesalers to restaurateurs through to seafood lovers. The initiative builds on an earlier project started in the KwaZulu-Natal Province which sought to educate restaurant dealers about the Marine Living Resources Act and other marine conservation issues. SASSI has three primary objectives:

1. Promote voluntary compliance of the law through education and awareness.

2. Shift consumer demand away from over-exploited species to more sustainable options.

3. Create awareness around marine conservation issues.
