Three days ago, we at Alner resumed our direct feedback sessions with consumers for this year, collaborating with Labtek Indie for the FGD. Meeting with our consumers, from those with us since 2021 to newcomers, was a highlight. Their feedback is crucial for us to improve our products and services. We also showed them our reusable packaging initiatives during a tour in our cleaning and sanitizing facility. This experience reinforced our belief that direct conversations with users offer unique insights that are unparalleled by any other source, making them invaluable for our continuous learning and improvement.

🌟 Inspiring Partnership: Alner & Waste Banks in Jabodetabek 🌟 Here's a brief overview of the partnership between Alner and waste banks in Jabodetabek (Greater Jakarta), which has been an inspiration over the past three years! 🌱 Sustainable Waste Management Waste banks are an organized waste management system where residents can deposit the inorganic waste they collect at home to a station or collection center. There, the waste is sorted, classified, and either recycled or further processed. The primary goal is to reduce the amount of waste ending up in landfills and promote more sustainable waste management.  ♻️ Innovative Reuse and Refill Model Through collaboration with Alner, these waste banks have taken a step further by adopting a reuse and refill model for daily products. This allows residents not only to deposit inorganic waste but also to refill products such as soap, detergent, and other daily necessities at provided refill stations. Moreover, with the return model, residents can exchange their empty containers for ones that are already filled, choosing between refill or return models according to their needs and preferences.  🔄 Adopting a Minimal Waste Lifestyle This initiative has helped promote the adoption of a minimal waste lifestyle among the community, making it easier for customers to reduce the use of single-use packaging and contribute to the reduction of plastic waste. Mrs. Musdhalina, representing Dahlia Waste Bank, captures the essence of this initiative succinctly. "Partnering with Alner has shifted how we view waste - not as an end, but as a beginning. It's about taking pride in our collective effort to turn the tide against pollution and embracing a lifestyle that values reuse over disposal. This journey has shown us the strength of community action and the real possibility of a cleaner, greener future." ✨ Every Small Action Counts Through this partnership, the message is clear: each small action, each decision to refill or reuse, adds up to a significant impact. 🌍💚🔄

📣 Reuse shines at the World Economic Forum White Paper! We're thrilled to share that our experiences are showcased in a World Economic Forum publication titled 'Scaling Reuse Models: A Guide to Standardized Measurement. 🚀 Our journey of establishing 500+ reuse hubs in the Greater Jakarta area, particularly among women-led communities, has been remarkable for our venture. Alner is committed to expanding its impact, aiming to offer a broader range of products in reusable packaging to combat plastic waste in the coming year. 🌱 You can access the complete paper and Alner's feature through this link: https://lnkd.in/e7DfUA5D #BetterReuse for a zero-waste future. Let's make it happen together.

Proud to share that Alner & Nestlé have launched the returnable reusable packaging system for Nestle's renowned cereal KOKO KRUNCH and the popular chocolate milk MILO in Indonesia. This initiative is a proactive step towards reducing single-portion plastic sachets. Local consumers can now purchase these products in pre-packaged, returnable & reusable containers at select retail partners such as supermarkets Alfamidi Super Bangka and TIPTOP Rawamangun. Also through our home delivery service via our website or at some local warungs we partner with, details of which are available at www.alner.id. A deposit is paid for these containers, which can be returned to those retail partners or to our delivery guy during next deliveries. The packaging is then sanitized, refilled, and sent back to the store for reuse. This innovative system is designed to substitute the single-use sachets with exact single servings. The launch wouldn't have been possible without the hard work and dedication of the teams at Alner Fajar Hidayat Firman Kurnia Setiabudi Renata Felichiko Nurandhita Zana Aprillia Wening Pakerti Sinan and Nestlé Sophie Troncoso Tisha Aisyah Afliansa Martin Sohr . We warmly invite more brands to join this initiative, especially in preparation for the upcoming implementation of the P75 2019 Waste Reduction Roadmap by the Ministry of Environment, which aims to ban certain problematic single-use packaging types, like flexibles under 50 ml/50 g and more in 2030. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and happy holidays! We look forward to making more initiatives next year! #reuse #refill #sustainablepackaging #reusablepackaging #innovation

"Two winners of the Strive Innovation Fund, Novek and Alner , have developed novel solutions focused on reducing plastic waste through supply chains in their respective markets, Kenya and Indonesia.

Reusable packaging alert! ✅ Nestlé is partnering with Alner and Enviu to launch KoinPack, a pilot project in Indonesia testing reusable packaging for Milo and Koko Krunch. Like our circolution GmbH packaging in Germany, with KoinPack you can enjoy your favourite products and help tackle plastic pollution at the same time! Instead of throwing out the packaging after use, you return it to the store, where it is collected, cleaned, and re-filled for the next person. #packagingsolutions #circularity #wearenestlé #sustainabilty
