Understanding SROI

Social Return on Investment (SROI) is a systematic way of incorporating social, environmental, economic and other values into the decision-making processes. By helping to reveal the economic value of social and environmental outcomes, SROI creates a holistic perspective on whether a development project / social business / enterprise is beneficial and profitable.

In simple terms it shows how much good is created for every dollar spent.

SROI helps funders, nonprofits and businesses measure and monitor the real impact of their work - not just in the money spent, but through the positive change that is being made.

Through SROI, we enable multiple SDG Goals:

We alleviate poverty by enabling communities to monetise plastic waste.

We empower women and youth to build sustainable businesses and become successful entrepreneurs.

Our self-contained water reticulation system filters out micro plastics, preventing plastic from entering the eco system.

Our model contributes to the growth of economic wellbeing through the scaling of Micro Recycling abilities.

First of its kind Micro Recycling Solutions that enable recycling at the source of the problem and that can be run off-grid using renewable sources.

Through our solutions, everyone in a community can participate and benefit from the economic opportunities afforded by plastic recycling.

Our Micro Recycling Solutions contribute to sustainability through localised recycling programmes.

We are enabling a Circular Plastic Economy - taking single use plastic and allowing it to be recycled multiple times so that single use becomes an obsolete term.
