Our Community
It takes a community to change and grow.
The Circular Communities Australia community is made up of Big Bag Recovery which includes: bag importers; brand owners; product users (consumers); collectors; and collection points (businesses, councils and resellers) AND Circular Communities Australia which includes: manufacturers; and users of new products made from 100% recycled content.
Our community does this so it can repeat it again and again. We do not generate the initial plastic or its problems, but we can influence what happens after that.
This is what our community is about.
