About Us

We’re on a mission! For the next six months, we’ll be gathering precious resources to start a Community Resource Recovery Centre at the Katikati Recycling Centre. Get ready for a resourceful adventure!

The Katikati Resource Recovery Centre is a community recycling and resource recovery facility that operates as a social enterprise for the Chrome Collective Charitable Trust. We aim to generate revenue from the sale of goods and materials contributed by the local community. This revenue will be the rocket fuel that keeps Chrome soaring, while also creating jobs for people with disabilities and wait for it, saving Mother Earth from danger!

Our mission is to financially support Chrome Collective Charitable Trust supporting individuals with disabilities through our social enterprise initiatives. We aim to promote inclusivity and equal opportunities within our communities while also providing meaningful employment opportunities for people with disabilities within our organization.
