The Australian and NSW governments have jointly allocated A$11.2m to enhance hard-to-recycle plastics recycling infrastructure in New South Wales. iQRenew in Kundle Kundle will receive A$9.1m for upgrades to process 10,000 tonnes of soft plastics annually, producing recycled resin for various products. A new facility in Tamworth will receive A$1.9m to process 7,000 tonnes of hard-to-recycle plastics into remanufacturable materials.

Both projects aim to create jobs and divert waste from landfills. This funding is part of a broader effort to strengthen the recycling infrastructure in Australia, which has seen low recycling rates for hard-to-process plastics.
