Eco Match presents users with the ability to repurpose, at a discounted rate, the disposed waste of other users and use it as a resource.
About
The economic crisis in Lebanon and the devaluation of the local currency made it hard for companies/institutes/workshops to purchase raw materials and import resources. On the other hand, our country has been facing for decades an environmental crisis from the accumulation of solid waste. In fact, a lot of that waste is actually too valuable to end up in landfills. Eco Match presents users with the ability to repurpose, at a discounted rate, the disposed waste of other users and use it as a resource. By providing a link between the output of one company and the input of another, waste can be deferred from ending in disposal sites, paving the way for a more eco-effective circular model. The added value of this endeavor is in keeping resources circulating and thus reduce the economic burden of importing materials and the environmental toll of solid waste accumulation. Moreover, the interactions achieved through our startup can lead to the development of associations and partnerships between different companies. This paves the way to achieving circular economy in Lebanon.
