Nerul Gymkhana Enhances Waste Management with Baling Machine and Storage

04 Feb 2025 CW Team

The Humanitarian Wing of Nerul Gymkhana has undertaken significant initiatives to advance waste management and sustainability efforts. As part of its commitment to responsible plastic waste disposal, the organization has acquired a cutting-edge Baling Machine, valued at Rs 4.5 lakhs. This machine is specifically designed for processing Multi-Layered Plastic (MLP), which is a major byproduct of waste segregation efforts carried out by women ragpickers. This step plays a key role in recycling and repurposing plastic waste, contributing to more sustainable practices.

Alongside the new machine, the Gymkhana’s Humanitarian Wing has also enhanced its waste storage capacity. In response to a request from Stree Mukti Sanghatana, a prominent NGO focused on women's empowerment and environmental sustainability, the Gymkhana has expanded its waste storage shed at a cost of Rs 2.5 lakhs. The expansion has effectively doubled the storage capacity, enabling the collection and segregation of larger volumes of waste. By ensuring proper separation of wet and dry waste before disposal, this initiative supports a more organized and efficient waste management system.

These efforts not only improve working conditions for women involved in waste collection but also contribute to broader environmental sustainability in the region. Through investments in both technology and infrastructure, Nerul Gymkhana is reinforcing its dedication to community service and environmental responsibility, setting an example for other institutions to emulate.
