# WAFLO: We Advance Feedstock Loops

> WAFLO (WAFLO CIRCULARITY COMPANY LIMITED) is a Tanzanian circular-materials company based in Kinyerezi, Dar es Salaam. We use technology to recover, engineer, process and supply circular manufacturing materials, so African factories get affordable, sustainable and supply-secure inputs. We started with waste-based feedstocks and are moving to seaweed.

## What we do
- [D-POD (Diversion Pods)](https://waflo.co.tz/waflohubs.html): modular material recovery stations at the source of waste, run by trained local youth, with IoT-linked scales that send recovery data in real time. We supply sorted PET, LDPE, HDPE, PP, aluminium cans and paper, loose or baled, to Tanzania's recyclers.
- [Phycomade](https://waflo.co.tz/phycomade.html): seaweed and nanocellulose materials made to replace imported PE plastics and fossil-fuel-based formulants. Phycomade Soft is for flexible packaging (films, carrier bags). Phycomade Shield is a powder added to paper to improve strength and barrier properties. Both are pre-market, TRL 3.
