About us
WHY THE TREE FROG
The tree frog is more than a symbol; it represents the fragile balance of nature and the urgency to protect it. Known as a living barometer of ecosystem health, its sensitivity to even small environmental changes makes it one of the first indicators of pollution or habitat disruption. Its porous skin absorbs moisture directly from its surroundings, making it especially vulnerable to toxins and a critical early warning for ecological stress.
This sensitivity is its strength. The tree frog lives on the edge between thriving ecosystems and decline, reminding us that sustainability requires awareness, urgency, and care. It calls us to act before damage becomes irreversible.
At Reclite SA, we see the frog not just as a symbol but as a guide. Its role inspires our own, to remain alert, act responsibly, and help regenerate the systems that support life.
At Reclite SA, we see ourselves in the resilient and responsive nature of the tree frog, a creature that not only survives but thrives through adaptability and environmental awareness. Much like this amphibian, which signals shifts in ecosystem health long before they become critical, Reclite remains agile and alert to the ever-changing landscape of waste and environmental responsibility in South Africa.
We respond proactively to these challenges by developing customised, forward-thinking recycling systems that go beyond basic disposal. Our ability to adapt, whether to new waste streams, evolving legislation, or emerging technologies, is central to our mission. Where others may see obstacles, we identify opportunity: to innovate, to educate, and to lead by example.
Just as the tree frog’s presence signals the health of an ecosystem, Reclite’s presence reflects a shift towards a cleaner, circular economy. In this model, waste is no longer an endpoint but the beginning of sustainable transformation. Through our work, we not only protect the environment but actively contribute to its regeneration, helping communities, industries, and ecosystems thrive in harmony.
Our values are reflected in the spirit of the tree frog:
- Like its dependence on clean water, we safeguard water systems by removing hazardous substances from waste (SDG 6).
- As it thrives in biodiverse environments, we restore nature and prevent pollution, helping ecosystems recover (SDG 15).
- With a call that carries across landscapes, we raise awareness through education and industry collaboration (SDGs 4 and 17).
- Just as the frog contributes to ecological balance, we support a circular clean energy economy (SDG 7) and champion work in the green sector (SDG 8).
The tree frog reminds us that even the smallest signals matter. At Reclite SA, we listen, respond,
and lead. We turn yesterday’s waste into tomorrow’s resources and help build a greener, more sustainable South Africa.

Our Values
At Reclite SA, our values are deeply rooted in global sustainability and local impact. We align our work with key United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to ensure that everything we do contributes to a better, cleaner, and more equitable future.
Education
& Awareness
We believe that knowledge is
key to lasting change. We actively engage
in community and industry education,
raising awareness about responsible
recycling, compliance,
and environmental stewardship.
Water
Protection
We are committed to reducing pollution
in water systems by safely handling
hazardous waste like mercury from
lamps and batteries. Our processes
are designed to protect water
quality and prevent contamination.
Clean Energy
Future
By recovering valuable materials used
in renewable energy products (like solar
panels and batteries), we help reduce the
need for new resource extraction
and support the transition to a
circular clean energy economy.
Ethical Employment
& Economic Growth
We create safe, inclusive jobs
and support local enterprise
development through our supply chain.
Our work empowers people and
promotes dignified, meaningful
employment in the green economy.

Innovation &
Industry Leadership
We continuously innovate to
improve recycling technologies
and infrastructure, contributing
to a more resilient and sustainable
waste management industry
in South Africa and beyond.
Protecting
Oceans
Incorrectly disposed e-waste and
lighting can release toxic substances
into oceans and waterways.
Our safe collection and processing
methods minimise marine
pollution and help safeguard
aquatic ecosystems.
Restoring
Nature
Our mission includes keeping
hazardous materials out of soil
and landfills. By recovering
and reusing valuable
materials, we reduce pressure
on ecosystems and help
protect biodiversity.
Partnerships
for Impact
We collaborate with government bodies,
producers, industry associations,
and communities to drive meaningful
environmental change. Together,
we scale impact and move
closer to a zero-waste future
for future generations.
