Since January 2016 the company is going through a reorganization with a double objective: first, standardize its processes in order to better service its customers, second, mitigate the impact on the environment by proposing the practice of more sustainable disposal and waste recovery.
Municipal Solid Waste collection
GAEA is collecting municipal solid waste from households and businesses holding a solid waste removal contract with GAEA within the framework of the government license. GAEA is responsible for collecting waste only if it's well disposed in a garbage bin and is not responsible for collecting construction waste, garden waste, industrial waste. Nevertheless GAEA can offer special services on request, so don't hesitate to contact us.
Sorting, Recycling and Composting
GAEA is currently working on pilot projects for recycling:
1. Compost of organic food from markets and restaurants
2. Glass bottle pulverizing into sand
3. Plastic bottles and foils recycling
Disposal
GAEA presented a project to the Ministry of Environment to develop in Siem Reap the first sanitary landfill in Cambodia. The project is on hold for the moment.
