Creating circular solutions for materials that would otherwise end up in landfill
Donut Waste is a social enterprise on a mission to create a circular economy through plastic beer clip collections, upcycling coffee grounds into products and sustainable education.

Actions trump ideas! Sharka is a passionate waste warrior who believes we all have a responsibility to reduce the environmental impact our behaviour has on this planet.
She worked for several years for a local e-waste recycler and then as a waste education officer for a local council before starting her own social enterprise to create a bigger impact.
Sharka’s mission is to activate our community through fun and accessible education to inspire real sustainable actions.
OUR IMPACT
105,190 plastic clips
63.5 Tonnes coffee grounds
4,154 hessian bags
220 kg doughnuts
Plastic clips are made out of sturdy High-density polyethylene (HDPE) and can be reused 50+ times. They can’t be recycled through your yellow kerbside bin!
You can now drop them off at more than 55 collection points in Perth and WA. If you’d like your bottle shop to start collecting with us, ask them to fill in the form below.
It’s free and helps us all save the planet.
We collect coffee grounds from local schools, cafes and other businesses, for reuse in community gardens to enrich their compost.
Coffee grounds can also be made into soaps and body scrubs which we can teach you to make yourself in one of our workshops.
