Company Description

Only 5% of waste is recycled in Latin America, 10 times less than in Europe, because the system is informal and fragmented. Muta, a clean-tech startup, is digitizing the recycling industry in Latin America, buying recyclables and then selling them to industrial transformers. With Muta, businesses and households can earn money from recycling, while collectors can double their income with a proper job in safe working conditions.
