KOTA KINABALU: Carlsberg Malaysia is working with Sabah Recycling Association (Ripple) to pilot-test a three-year glass bottle recycling and community empowerment programme named CarlsBot.

Committing towards its Environmental, Social and Governance agenda, the brewer has co-created a glass bottle ecosystem with Ripple to recycle its non-returnable glass bottles in the state capital by empowering local communities to tackle waste and generate income.

For year one, three CarlsBot machines will be made available in Kota Kinabalu at the Tanjung Aru Marine Ecosystem Center and two community centres in Luyang and Kingfisher here. These materials can be used in various beneficial ways, for example, to pave roads or be upcycled into handicrafts, furniture and even big ideas like 3D printed housing and Kota Kinabalu shoreline sand retention, while also generating additional income for local entrepreneurs and preserving nature.

“This will consequently have much larger impacts on the lives of the communities in Kota Kinabalu and the environment of Sabah,” she said.
