Rethinking Responsibility. Reimagining the Future.

Change starts with shared responsibility. Our mission: a circular economy that works not in theory, but in real life. One that cuts emissions, saves resources, and raises the bar for environmental action. And the time to act is today.

Zero Waste – Our Guiding Principle

Climate change, dwindling resources, rising mountains of waste — these challenges are no joke. But with a circular mindset and practical action, we’re tackling them head-on. As the DNP's official circular economy partner, we're proving that circular economy transformation is possible — and happening.

"Circular economy goes beyond recycling. It’s a new way to recognize value. PreZero makes this change possible; we make it visible."
