Plastic waste is sorted by workers from the Indonesia Project B Recycling Boutique in Sleman, Yogyakarta, on Monday (17/2/2019).

At the hands of groups of young people, plastic packaging waste can be recycled and transformed into valuable products. The business of the plastic waste recycling is carried out under a social entrepreneurship concept involving 350 community groups.

A number of bags, pencil boxes, folders, purses, key chains and imitation flowers are neatly arranged in the display cases and shelves in a boutique on Jl. Sukoharjo, Condong Catur, Depok district, Sleman regency, Yogyakarta.
