KUALA LUMPUR: Nestlé (M) Bhd is expanding its plastic waste recycling initiative, Project SAVE, in Kedah through a collaboration with the Solid Waste Management and Public Cleansing Corporation (SWCorp).
In a statement, the group said Project SAVE, which supports household waste separation and recycling through weekly door-to-door collection of dry mixed recyclables, is on track to reach 300,000 households nationwide by the end of 2026.
Launched in 2020, the programme has expanded to about 260,000 households across nine cities. In 2025, the initiative diverted an estimated 15,000 tonnes of solid waste, including 10,000 tonnes of plastic, from landfills and oceans.
Nestlé Malaysia said the programme was introduced in Kulim in 2025 through a pilot project with SWCorp, E-Idaman and ESH Resource.
