It is very heart-warming to see business operator on the island taking the initiative to take care of the environment – their very source of income. Recently, a dive shop on Tioman Island, B&J Diving Centre, borrow our glass crushing machine to crush over 30 wheelbarrows of glass bottles that they have collected.
The machine takes in glass (bottles and etc), crushes them and they will come out into tiny pieces mimicking the sands. The ‘sands’ can then be used for construction and other purposes.
Everyone from the dive shop had worked hard in this recycling project. From cleaning the bottles, to peeling off labels, and on to packing them. Well-done to the team!
