CARIBBEAN ISLANDS EXPRESS INTEREST IN WASTAWAY SYSTEMS

If you're a Caribbean island, your residents and visitors generate a lot of waste. But small islands don't have much space for landfills, which has spurred interest in the Wastaway systems.

Four Caribbean island governments have approached Wastaway for information about the product, because of the benefits for countries with limited space. All have also expressed interest in the possibility of converting their solid waste into energy, and are watching progress in Aruba, which is in the process of installing its first system. Although each of the countries has asked to remain unnamed, in addition to the land use and energy benefits, these islands, who rely heavily on tourism for their economy, believe that a Wastaway system gives them a marketing edge to travelers who are becoming more and more eco-friendly.
