In our 1st episode, I chat with Ethar Alali, CEO and founder of ReallyRecycle.com, about the importance of local circularity and how his early experiences led to the creation of Automedi and ReallyRecycle. Ethar explains the common mistakes councils make with recycling and highlights everyday plastics—like certain packaging and mixed materials—that often get overlooked. We dive into how Automedi’s ‘Nano’ machines transform these plastics into useful products, especially care equipment for the health industry. Ethar also challenges the idea that recycling isn’t financially rewarding for businesses, sharing real incentives and giving shout-outs to others doing great work in the field.For global companies in pharma or hospitality, Ethar offers three ways to partner with ReallyRecycle.com, including on-site recycling solutions and community projects. He also shares why he calls himself an “Involuntary Activist” and stresses the urgent need for everyone to take sustainability seriously, reminding us that our future depends on it.
