Hong Kong’s only drinks carton recycler faces closure after government-backed science park refuses to renew lease


Hong Kong’s only drinks carton recycler is on the verge of folding after the government-backed landlord refused to renew its lease and told it to leave the premises within four months.

Founders warned that the cessation would immediately affect the city’s more than 160 collection points for recyclables as no other companies could process the waste.
