AUSTRALIAN COUNCIL OF RECYCLING

The Australian recycling industry is one of our country’s growth industries, supporting a more sustainable economy, while employing over 30,000 people and indirectly creating another 25,000 jobs.

The industry consists of hundreds of businesses, including some of the Australia’s largest companies, involved in the collection, sorting and processing of recovered materials for re-use. Whether in the home, the office or the factory, recycling is a part of everyday life, with more than 95 per cent of Australians recycling.
​
ACOR is a non-profit volunteer organisation. Members commit their time, resources and energy to lead the transition to a circular economy through resource recovery, remanufacturing and recycling.
