Oricol has been delivering on-site waste management solutions for businesses across Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) for many years. Here’s how we helped one of the region’s most prominent hospitality venues transform its waste performance from the ground up.
Challenge: A low recycling rate, no structured sorting system, poor bin signage and no performance tracking — leaving significant recoverable material going to landfill.
Solution: Oricol implemented a fully managed total waste management programme, including on-site supervision 7 days a week, infrastructure upgrades, staff training, and monthly compliance reporting aligned with ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001.
Effective waste management requires innovative solutions and a structured approach aligned with international best-practice standards. This is clearly demonstrated through the partnership between Boardwalk Casino and Hotel and Oricol Environmental Services.” — Makgale Madisha, SHE Officer, Boardwalk Casino and Hotel
