Anyang City to Establish Resource-Saving Upcycle Center by 2026

Mayor Choi Dae-ho of Anyang City is delivering a greeting at the kickoff briefing for the "Anyang City Upcycle Center Feasibility Study Research Service," held on the 7th in the city hall situation room.

Anyang City in Gyeonggi Province will establish an upcycle center by 2026 to promote resource conservation and recycling.

Through the center, Anyang plans not only to improve awareness of resources but also to discover and nurture upcycle companies that enhance the value of recyclables, thereby creating future industrial competitiveness.

To this end, on the 7th, Anyang held a kickoff meeting for the "Anyang Upcycle Center Feasibility Study Research Project" at the city hall situation room.

This project includes ▲ understanding upcycle center policies ▲ selecting the project site ▲ reviewing the feasibility and budget of the upcycle center ▲ preparing the direction for the upcycle center construction project. It will be carried out until January next year.

Mayor Choi Dae-ho of Anyang expressed his determination, saying, "Through this project, we will thoroughly analyze candidate sites to select the optimal location and establish an effective direction for the upcycle center project."

Anyang will evaluate the site conditions and infrastructure of the candidate locations from various perspectives, hold a mid-term report meeting in October, and finalize the site.

Meanwhile, in February, Anyang submitted an application for a national subsidy project to the Ministry of Environment for the establishment of the upcycle center. A total of 5 billion KRW will be supported by the national government in the future.

Earlier, in May, Mayor Choi Dae-ho visited Seoul Sae Hwal-yong Plaza, which is promoting recycling-related education and projects, along with National Assembly member Min Byung-duk and related department heads, to benchmark the facility.
