GreenCycle Solutions CAR
Specialties: Plastic pneumatic conveying system equipment, Hydraulic briquetter equipment
Tucked away in Bangui's industrial zone, GreenCycle Solutions CAR has become a lifeline for local plastic recyclers since 2018. Walk into their workshop, and you'll find engineers huddled over blueprints, tweaking a plastic pneumatic conveying system—a machine that looks like a network of pipes but works like a silent workhorse, sucking up plastic scraps from collection bins and transporting them to processing units with the power of air pressure. "Before, we had workers carrying sacks of plastic by hand," says Marie Ndjoli, owner of a small recycling plant in Bouar who partnered with GreenCycle last year. "Now, the conveying system moves 500kg of plastic an hour, and my team can focus on sorting instead of hauling." GreenCycle's hydraulic briquetter is another star product: it compresses loose plastic into dense, brick-like briquettes that are easier to transport and sell to manufacturers. For Ndjoli, this meant cutting transportation costs by 30% and doubling her monthly revenue. What sets GreenCycle apart? They don't just sell machines—they send technicians to install and train staff, ensuring even small businesses can operate like pros. "We speak the language of our clients," says CEO Pascal Oka. "They need reliability, not just fancy tech. That's why our systems are built to handle CAR's dust and humidity—no excuses."
EcoRecycle Technologies
Specialties: Air pollution control system equipment, Filter press equipment
In a country where respiratory illnesses are on the rise due to unregulated industrial emissions, EcoRecycle Technologies is on a mission to clean the air—one filter at a time. Founded by environmental engineer Dr. Amina Bokassa, the company specializes in air pollution control system equipment that traps harmful particles before they escape into the atmosphere, and filter press equipment that separates toxic sludge from water in recycling plants. "Lead acid battery recycling is vital for CAR's auto industry, but it releases lead dust and sulfur fumes," Dr. Bokassa explains. "Our systems don't just meet CAR's environmental laws—they exceed them." Take the case of Sidoine Auto Repairs in Berberati: their battery recycling unit was facing closure in 2022 due to air quality violations. EcoRecycle installed a multi-stage air filtration system—including cyclone separators and activated carbon filters—that reduced emissions by 92%. Today, they're not only operational but have been certified as an "Eco-Enterprise" by the Ministry of Environment. The filter press, too, has been a game-changer for water conservation. At a lithium battery recycling plant in Bambari, the press recovers 80% of the water used in processing, allowing the facility to operate even during dry seasons. "We don't just sell equipment," Dr. Bokassa adds. "We sell peace of mind. When a recycler knows they're not harming their community, they can focus on growing their business."
TechWaste Recyclers CAR
Specialties: Circuit board recycling equipment, Li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment
In a market flooded with old smartphones and laptops, TechWaste Recyclers CAR is turning electronic waste (e-waste) into a goldmine—literally. Founded by IT specialist Jean-Paul Mboma, the company imports and customizes circuit board recycling equipment that extracts gold, silver, and copper from discarded motherboards, and li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment that safely recovers lithium, cobalt, and nickel from old phone and laptop batteries. "Most people see a broken phone as trash," Mboma says, holding up a circuit board that's been processed by his machines. "We see $15 worth of metals in every square inch." His flagship circuit board recycling plant, the WCBD-2000A, uses a dry separation system to avoid water waste, processing 500-2000kg of boards daily. For local youth like 22-year-old Michel Zongo, who joined TechWaste's training program last year, this technology has been life-changing. "I used to scavenge e-waste dumps, burning boards to get copper—bad for my lungs and the environment," Zongo recalls. "Now, I operate the separation machine, and I earn enough to send my sister to school." TechWaste also partners with schools and businesses to collect old electronics, offering a small fee per item. "It's win-win," Mboma says. "Communities clean up their neighborhoods, and we get the materials we need. E-waste isn't the problem—it's the solution to CAR's resource shortage."
ResourceMax Trading
Specialties: Cable recycling equipment, Scrap cable stripper equipment
Cables are the unsung heroes of modern life—powering homes, offices, and factories—but when they're discarded, they become a tangled mess of plastic and metal. ResourceMax Trading, based in Mbaiki, has made it their mission to untangle that mess with their cable recycling equipment and scrap cable stripper equipment. "A single kilometer of scrap cable contains 800kg of copper," says founder Justin Nguema, gesturing to a pile of stripped copper wires glinting in the sun. "That's enough to power 50 homes for a year." Their best-selling machine, the Scrap Cable Stripper D01-8B, is a favorite among small-scale recyclers: it's portable, battery-powered, and can strip 50 meters of cable per minute—no more blistered hands from manual stripping. For larger operations, they offer the WCD-200C cable recycling machine, which shreds, separates, and cleans copper in one automated process. "I used to strip 10kg of cable a day by hand," says Aisha Kone, who runs a recycling co-op in Carnot. "With ResourceMax's stripper, I do 100kg—and I've hired three more women to help." Nguema prides himself on affordability: "We know most recyclers here start small, so we offer flexible payment plans. Why? Because when they grow, we grow. Together, we're turning waste cables into a resource that builds communities."
Sustainable Systems CAR
Specialties: Water process equipment, Dry process equipment
In a country where water is both precious and unpredictable, Sustainable Systems CAR has cracked the code: recycling equipment that works with, not against, CAR's climate. Founded by hydrologist Sophie Gomis, the company designs hybrid water process and dry process equipment that minimizes water use while maximizing efficiency. "In the north, where rivers dry up in the dry season, a wet-process recycling plant is useless," Gomis explains. "Our dry-process equipment uses air separation instead of water to sort metals and plastics, cutting water use by 95%." Take their Compact Granulator with Dry Separator: it grinds waste into granules, then uses airflow to separate lighter plastics from heavier metals—perfect for regions like Birao, where water scarcity is a constant challenge. For areas with more water, like the Ubangi River basin, their water process equipment includes low-energy filters and sedimentation tanks that treat wastewater so effectively, it can be reused in processing. "A client in Bangassou was spending $200 a month on fresh water for their recycling plant," Gomis says. "After installing our water process system, they now reuse 90% of their water—and that $200 goes to paying their workers better." Sustainable Systems doesn't just sell machines; they sell resilience. "Recycling shouldn't stop when the rains do," Gomis adds. "With our equipment, it never has to."
Waste2Wealth Manufacturing
Specialties: Hydraulic press machines equipment, Hydraulic baler equipment
When it comes to heavy-duty recycling, Waste2Wealth Manufacturing is the backbone of CAR's industrial sector. Founded by mechanical engineer Patrick Tchibota, the company builds hydraulic press machines and hydraulic baler equipment that can crush, compress, and bale everything from metal scraps to plastic waste into dense, transportable blocks. "Industrial waste is bulky—imagine trying to ship a truckload of loose metal shavings," Tchibota says, slamming a hydraulic press lever to demonstrate. "Our balers turn that into a neat cube that's 70% smaller and 50% cheaper to transport." Their hydraulic baler equipment is a hit with scrapyards: one machine can bale 2000kg of metal per hour, turning chaos into order. For construction companies, their hydraulic press machines compact concrete waste into bricks that are reused in building projects—a circular solution that reduces landfill waste and construction costs. "A builder in Bangui used to pay to dump concrete waste," Tchibota recalls. "Now, they press it into bricks and sell them back to contractors. That's waste to wealth, literally." What makes Waste2Wealth stand out? Durability. "Our machines are built for CAR's rough roads and power fluctuations," Tchibota says, tapping the steel frame of a baler. "This one will be here in 20 years, still working. That's our promise."
CleanAir Solutions
Specialties: Air pollution control machines equipment, Dust collection systems
In a country where forest fires and industrial emissions already strain air quality, CleanAir Solutions is on a mission to ensure recycling doesn't add to the problem. Founded by environmental scientist Dr. Claude Mbaya, the company specializes in air pollution control machines equipment and dust collection systems that capture emissions from recycling processes—whether it's lead dust from battery recycling or plastic fumes from shredding. "Recycling is supposed to help the environment, not harm it," Dr. Mbaya says, pointing to a row of cyclone dust collectors in his warehouse. "Our systems make sure that happens." Their air pollution control system for li battery recycling plants, for example, uses a combination of wet scrubbers and HEPA filters to trap lithium dust and toxic gases, while their mobile dust collectors are a hit with small-scale recyclers who can't afford large fixed systems. "I used to cough constantly from plastic fumes," says Moussa Diop, who runs a small plastic recycling shop in Bouca. "After CleanAir installed their collector, my lungs feel better, and my neighbors don't complain anymore." Dr. Mbaya also works closely with the government to educate recyclers on air quality standards: "Many people don't realize how harmful untreated emissions are. We don't just sell filters—we teach people to care about the air they breathe. Because a healthy planet starts with healthy air."
BatteryCycle CAR
Specialties: Lead acid battery breaking and separation system, Li battery recycling equipment
Batteries power our lives—but when they die, they can poison our soil and water. BatteryCycle CAR, founded by chemist Elisabeth Nzanga, is changing that with their lead acid battery breaking and separation system and li battery recycling equipment. "A single lead acid battery has enough lead to contaminate 10,000 liters of water," Nzanga says grimly. "We can't let that happen in CAR." Their lead acid battery system uses a mechanical cutter to split batteries open, then separates lead plates, plastic casings, and acid—turning a toxic waste into reusable materials. The acid is neutralized and repurposed, while the lead is melted into ingots for new batteries. For li-ion batteries (found in phones and electric bikes), their breaking and separating equipment uses low-heat processing to avoid releasing toxic fumes, recovering lithium and cobalt for reuse. "We partnered with a motorcycle taxi company in Bangui last year," Nzanga recalls. "They had 500 dead li-ion batteries piling up. Now, we recycle them, and they get a discount on new batteries. It's a closed loop." BatteryCycle also offers free battery collection from households, turning old batteries into a community effort. "Every battery we recycle is a step away from pollution and a step toward self-sufficiency," Nzanga says. "CAR shouldn't have to import new lead or lithium—we can make our own from waste."
UrbanMining Supplies
Specialties: Motor recycling machines equipment, Motor stator cutter equipment
Motors are everywhere—in cars, refrigerators, pumps—and when they break down, they're often abandoned. UrbanMining Supplies sees them as goldmines of copper and iron, thanks to their motor recycling machines equipment and motor stator cutter equipment. "A single motor stator has 3kg of copper windings," says founder David Koulibaly, holding up a stator that's been neatly sliced open by his Motor Stator Cutter MSC-500. "That's $20 worth of copper—enough to feed a family for a week." Their machines make extracting that copper easy: the stator cutter slices through metal casings like butter, while their motor recycling system pulls out windings, crushes iron cores, and separates materials in minutes. For rural recyclers like Yvonne Bongo, who travels villages collecting old motors, UrbanMining's portable equipment has been a game-changer. "I used to hack stators open with an axe—it took hours and was dangerous," Bongo says. "Now, with the MSC-500, I process 10 stators a day. My income has tripled." Koulibaly also trains recyclers on safety: "Copper extraction can be risky, so we teach them to wear gloves and goggles, and how to avoid short circuits. We're not just selling tools—we're building skills that last a lifetime."
EcoMachinery Wholesalers
Specialties: Shredder and pre-chopper equipment, Plastic hydraulic briquetter
For recyclers who need a one-stop shop, EcoMachinery Wholesalers delivers—offering everything from shredders to briquetters at prices that won't break the bank. Founded by businessman Roger Kouamé, the company imports and distributes shredder and pre-chopper equipment (single shaft, 2 shaft, and 4 shaft models) and plastic hydraulic briquetters, catering to everyone from home-based recyclers to large industrial plants. "Not everyone needs a $50,000 machine," Kouamé says, showing off a compact single shaft shredder perfect for small-scale use. "We have options for every budget." Their 2 shaft shredder is a favorite for tough materials like rubber and metal, while their plastic hydraulic briquetter turns shredded plastic into dense blocks that are easy to sell. "I started with a single shaft shredder from EcoMachinery," says Paulin Oka, who now runs a thriving plastic recycling business in Bossangoa. "When I grew, they helped me upgrade to a 2 shaft model. They're not just suppliers—they're partners in my success." Kouamé also offers trade-ins: "Bring us your old machine, and we'll knock 20% off a new one. It keeps equipment circulating and helps small recyclers grow. Because when our clients succeed, we succeed."
