Shell Philippines Turns 3 Metric Tons of Plastic Waste Into Bike Racks for Sustainable Mobility Project

Shell Philippines has delivered a set of 110 bike racks made from 3,000 kg of plastic waste around Metro Manila and Southern Luzon as part of a unique activation to help encourage sustainable mobility and spotlight the power of the circular economy.

The Philippines has been hard hit by the plastic waste crisis which threatens the health of our planet.  The country’s Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Act, which requires large companies to recover 40% of their plastic packaging footprint in 2024, aims to encourage a circular economy for plastics to ensure waste doesn’t end up in nature.
