About Company

GemCorp Recycling and Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is part of the Gemini Corporation ecosystem, focused on building sustainable recycling and circular economy solutions through responsible material recovery and manufacturing. We operate recycling and manufacturing facilities in India and collaborate with partner facilities and material recovery centers across multiple regions.

Our focus is to strengthen recycling systems in a fair and equitable way. One of our key objectives is to give a fresh life to what we call “waste” by enabling a zero-waste-to-landfill ecosystem. At GemCorp, we are committed to business success through the conservation of natural resources using the principles of the circular economy. We strive to increase recycling capacity in a way that uplifts the social and economic status of waste reclaimers and brings more plastic waste into the circular economy value chain.
