MADE IN KENYA | How Jill Industries located in Mombasa is turning plastic waste into water tanks

Thousands of tonnes of waste generated everyday in Kenya end up in open dumpsites where it poses environmental and public health hazards. In the coastal region, that waste is now ending up in the Indian Ocean, affecting marine life and littering the coastal beaches. While this remains a challenge here, there has been a rise in enterprises managing waste and recycling it to make useful products. One such enterprise is Jill Industries, who turn plastic waste into water tanks.
