As South Africa's top recycler, we gather around 700, 000 tons of recyclables each year through various pick-up programs in schools, communities, and offices. These efforts boost recycling awareness, generate income, and elevate recycling rates.

Collect-a-Can (Pty) Ltd is a South African based can recovery and recycling organisation with a head office and seven branches across southern Africa, including branches in Botswana and Namibia. Collect-a-Can founders, ArcelorMittal South Africa and Nampak, started the company in 1993 to proactively address the steel beverage can industry's responsibility to the environment. This resulted in the recovery of all scrap tinplate generated in the tinplate and can-making processes, including cut-offs, misprints, sub-standard fills, and most importantly used metal cans. Since Collect-a-Can started, southern Africa's used beverage can recovery rate has improved from 18% to approximately 72% . We work actively within various communities, encouraging citizens from all walks of life to assist us in our can collecting efforts.
