Many offer after-sales support, training for local technicians, and even custom modifications to adapt machinery to Grenada's climate. By prioritizing durability, energy efficiency, and compliance with local environmental regulations, these suppliers are helping turn Grenada's recycling goals into reality.
The Top 10 Suppliers
1. EcoCycle Solutions Grenada
Founded in 2010, EcoCycle Solutions has grown from a small family-owned business to Grenada's most trusted name in recycling equipment. What sets them apart? A relentless focus on sustainability—both in their products and their operations. Their warehouse in St. George's runs on solar power, and they offset 100% of their carbon emissions through local reforestation projects.
EcoCycle's star product is their custom-designed plastic pneumatic conveying system , built to handle Grenada's high humidity without clogging or corrosion. But their catalog doesn't stop there: they're also a leading provider of air pollution control system equipment , ensuring that recycling facilities meet Grenada's strict air quality standards. Recent additions to their lineup include li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment , a response to the growing demand for e-waste recycling on the island.
"EcoCycle didn't just sell us a machine—they trained our team, visited our site three times to tweak the setup, and even followed up six months later to check on performance," says Maria Joseph, operations manager at Grenada Green Waste. "That level of care is unheard of here."
2. Caribbean Recycling Technologies (CRT)
With over 15 years in the industry, CRT has earned a reputation for innovation. Based in Grenville, they specialize in equipment that addresses the island's most pressing waste issues, including electronic waste and scrap metal. Their team of engineers frequently collaborates with the University of the West Indies to develop machinery adapted to local waste streams.
CRT's circuit board recycling equipment is a game-changer for e-waste recyclers, efficiently separating precious metals from plastic and glass. They also offer a range of hydraulic briquetter equipment , ideal for compacting metal scraps into manageable blocks for transport. What truly distinguishes CRT, though, is their "all-in-one" approach: many clients opt for their bundled packages, which include a plastic pneumatic conveying system, air pollution control gear, and even training manuals in Creole.
"We used to struggle with downtime because our old equipment wasn't built for Grenada's climate," says Thomas Antoine, owner of Antoine Scrap Metal. "CRT's machines have been running nonstop for two years—no breakdowns, no rust. Worth every penny."
3. GreenTech Machinery Ltd.
GreenTech entered the Grenadian market in 2015 with a bold mission: to make recycling accessible to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Unlike larger suppliers that focus on industrial-scale machinery, GreenTech offers compact, affordable equipment without sacrificing quality. Their showroom in Gouyave is a popular spot for local recyclers to test machines before purchasing.
Their bestseller? A portable plastic pneumatic conveying system designed for businesses with limited space. Weighing just 500kg, it can be moved with a standard pickup truck and set up in under an hour. GreenTech also excels in wet process equipment , used for separating metals from circuit boards and lithium-ion batteries. For clients on a budget, they offer flexible financing plans and trade-in options for old machinery.
"As a new recycling startup, we couldn't afford the big industrial systems," says Aisha Mohammed, founder of Green Futures Grenada. "GreenTech's portable conveyor fit our budget and our warehouse size. Now, a year later, we're expanding—and we're buying from them again."
4. Grenada Industrial Recycling Supplies (GIRS)
GIRS is the go-to wholesaler for many of Grenada's largest recycling facilities. Founded in 2008, they import top-tier equipment from Europe and Asia, then customize it for local use—adding corrosion-resistant coatings, tropical-grade wiring, and humidity controls. Their warehouse in St. David's stocks over 500 parts, ensuring quick repairs and minimal downtime for clients.
While they offer a full range of recycling machinery, GIRS is particularly known for their air pollution control system equipment , which includes high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters and odor-neutralizing units. They're also a leading supplier of li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment , with models ranging from 500kg/hour to 2,500kg/hour capacity. For clients who need it all, GIRS provides turnkey solutions, managing everything from installation to staff training.
"When we decided to add lithium battery recycling to our operations, GIRS handled every detail," says James Wilson, operations director at Grenada Waste Management. "Their team installed the equipment, trained our staff, and even helped us get certified by the environmental ministry. Total peace of mind."
5. Sustainable Systems Grenada (SSG)
SSG takes a holistic approach to recycling, viewing equipment as part of a larger sustainability ecosystem. Founded by environmental scientists in 2012, they prioritize machinery that minimizes energy use and maximizes resource recovery. Their office in Grand Anse doubles as an education center, hosting monthly workshops on recycling best practices.
SSG's dry process equipment is a hit among eco-conscious recyclers, using 30% less water than traditional wet systems—critical in a region where water conservation is key. They also offer a state-of-the-art air pollution control system that uses activated carbon filters to capture harmful emissions. What clients love most, though, is SSG's "green guarantee": for every machine sold, they plant 100 trees in Grenada's deforested areas.
"We didn't just want equipment—we wanted to align with our values," says Lisa Charles, owner of EcoVillage Recycling. "SSG's dry process system cut our water bill in half, and knowing we're helping reforest Grenada? That's the cherry on top."
6. Island Recycling Equipment Traders (IRET)
IRET is the only supplier on this list with exclusive partnerships with three global manufacturers: China's Henan Doing Environmental Protection and Germany's Bosch Rexroth, among others. This gives them access to cutting-edge technology that's often unavailable elsewhere in the Caribbean. Their warehouse in St. Andrew's is stacked with spare parts, ensuring fast repairs for clients across the island.

9. Grenada Waste Solutions (GWS)
GWS is a one-stop shop for recyclers who want to streamline their operations. From initial consultation to installation to ongoing maintenance, they handle every step of the process.
