Why is the Queensland Government supporting this program?

We want to accelerate projects that will make a significant difference on plastics recovery and recycling in Queensland and will contribute to moving Queensland towards a circular economy by adding value to waste resources and retaining them where possible within local economies.

This focus on the circular economy is a priority within the Queensland New-Industry Development Strategy, which sets out the Queensland Government’s approach to proactively developing the industries that will be in demand in a decarbonising world.
