ABOUT GPT CIRCULAR

Solving the Feedstock Problem

GPT Circular is a plastic feedstock supply and system-development company operating through PT GPT Circular Solutions in Indonesia and Global Plastic Trading Pty Ltd in Australia.

We create the commercial and operating systems required to move used plastic from fragmented local sources into global recycling markets.

Why We Exist

Global Recycling Projects Need More Than Technology

The world is investing heavily in new mechanical and advanced recycling capacity.

However, processing technology alone cannot create circularity. Recycling facilities require consistent volumes of suitable used plastic.

In many emerging economies, significant volumes of recoverable plastic exist, but the material remains dispersed across fragmented and informal markets.

GPT Circular exists to bridge that gap.

What We Do

We Build the Supply Side of Circularity

GPT Circular develops:

  • Collection networks
  • Procurement structures
  • Government partnerships
  • Village and community participation
  • Aggregation systems
  • Pre-processing capability
  • Quality and integrity controls
  • Commercial offtake pathways
  • Domestic and international logistics

Our role is to turn material that is difficult to procure into feedstock that can be supplied against real processing demand.

Mission

Our Mission

Our mission is to build the world’s largest supply network for used plastic feedstock from emerging economies.

We aim to connect communities and local material systems with global recycling projects that require reliable supply.

Vision
sight

Our Vision

A world in which used plastic has sufficient commercial value to be collected before it leaks into the environment.

We believe plastic leakage will only be stopped at scale when collection is commercially viable.

Our Philosophy

Commercial Viability Creates Lasting Environmental Impact

Mature economies have spent decades building formal waste systems. Emerging economies are at a different point in that journey.

Applying mature-market expectations without recognising local realities can prevent good projects from starting.

GPT Circular believes in establishing practical, responsible systems that work today and improving them continuously as scale, infrastructure and capability develop.

Environmental outcomes become durable when collectors, communities, processors and customers all receive genuine value.
