We're building something new

CleanCycle is an Australian startup founded in Melbourne. We are not a legacy waste company adding a new bin colour — we are building the dedicated infrastructure that absorbent hygiene waste has never had.

Pads, tampons, nappies, and incontinence products (AHP) have historically gone straight into general landfill alongside everyday rubbish because no tailored processing pathway existed. We believe in being honest about where we are: we've started with our MVP on discreet, colour-coded scheduled collections across Melbourne to keep this waste separate, and we're actively working towards material recovery, advanced treatment, and diverting these products from the ground entirely.
