Recycling starts in your mind
Yes, right there.
It’s this point where, after you open the cupboard under the sink, you don’t throw all the rubbish into one bin, but take a moment to sort it. A crushed plastic bottle goes into the plastic bin and a jar with no lid into the one for glass.
Why are you doing this?
Because you know it makes sense. Because you know that valuable raw materials can be extracted from rubbish. Because you know that there are companies that use plastic bottles to make micro-fleece sweatshirts, backpacks, and many other useful products.
Yes, we are one of those companies
At Cedo, we make products that help organise life in the household.
We are constantly improving them, as we are perfectly aware that also they can have a second life.
Why is recycling important?
8 million
tonnes of plastic ends up in the oceans every year
only 9%
of plastic waste is recycled
12%
of plastic waste is incinerated
These results speak for themselves. Developed recycling infrastructure and a closed-loop economy offer an enormous opportunity to change these figures.

Recycling within a closed-loop economy – our vision
With this specific goal in mind, we are already maximising the use of recycled plastics in our product solutions.
Our business is based on 3 pillars:
We plan to expand recycling options in the area of plastic packaging used in the household and increase the use of recycled material in products.
We know that reducing the amount of waste in the environment can be achieved, but more responsible use of resources is essential. Driven by the idea of sustainable development, we want to transform our organisation into a business that operates in full compliance with the principles of a closed-loop economy. This can be made possible by decoupling its operations from fossil fuel-based plastics and maximising their reuse through recycling.
We have been recycling for a long time...
Towards a better future
Sustainable development is the foundation of our activities at Cedo. We consistently reduce our environmental impact and develop a responsible approach to plastics – with the future of people and our planet in mind. The actions we take cover the entire product life cycle – from raw materials to their reuse.
Caring for the environment is our common cause – each of us is responsible. Don't wait, start today! And remember – recycling starts in your mind.
