The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sims Limited. This strong corporate backing allows PNG Recycling to invest in plants and equipment that aim to provide customer specific metal, tyre, plastic and battery recycling solutions. It also allows PNG Recycling to draw on expertise from leading recycling operations throughout the world. Complementing this global strength, PNG Recycling has a mixture of experienced nationals and expat managers who have in depth knowledge of conducting business in Papua New Guinea.

As a subsidiary of a global market leader, PNG Recycling takes its responsibilities as a corporate citizen seriously and is fully compliant with all IPA license requirements. The company holds all necessary licenses for exporting materials under the auspices of the Basel and Waigani Treaties.
