FY 2020 Result Impact – The Outbreak of pandemic CoVID-19 across the globe and in India has impacted Company’s operation by way of interruption in its core activities, supply chain and availability of Manpower.

Strong Future Prospects of Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs)

Inspired by the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, GG Engineering launched India’s first fully-automated and smart Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs) to enable environment-friendly disposal of plastic and other waste. The Company operates a diverse portfolio of Pet Bottle Crushing Machines. The Company aims to install RVMs at locations close to major sources of plastic waste generation such as railway stations, shopping malls, residential societies and other public places.

The Company is focused to provide machines in various configurations and capacities suitable for different types of locations.

New Revenue Stream – RVM Installation with Ad Rights

The Company has received an order from Western Railways to install and operate 25 plastic bottles crushing machines (PBCMs) across 16 train stations in Mumbai divisions. The contract awards advertising rights to show/broadcast advertisements at the PBCM kiosks. Advertising revenues will become a key revenue stream going forward with more such PBCM installation projects with advertising rights expected to be executed.

The contract also awards full rights for Pet bottle waste collection, another source of income. A single machine can collect up to 1000 bottles or 25 kgs of waste.
