Recylink

What Recylink does

Recylink is a B2B digital platform founded in 2017 and headquartered in Las Condes, Chile, that enables industrial companies to manage industrial waste end-to-end — from origin through transportation to final disposal — while automating regulatory compliance under Chilean environmental law. The core product is the Plataforma de Gestión Recylink, supported by four modules: Trazabilidad (waste traceability with chain-of-custody documentation), Marketplace (a two-sided network connecting generators with 600+ transportists and waste managers across Chile), Cumplimiento Normativo (automated SINADER, REP, and SIDREP declaration generation for the Chilean RETC registry), and Educación Ambiental (corporate environmental education and cultural-change programming). A free 48-hour diagnostic evaluation serves as the top-of-funnel acquisition tool for enterprise prospects.

The company operates across three Latin American countries (Chile, Peru, Costa Rica) and serves more than 150 enterprise customers generating over 12 tonnes of waste annually, with 1,300+ tonnes of waste managed through the platform to date. Named customers include Sodimac, Socovesa, Anglo American, Acciona, and Copec, spanning mining, construction, retail, energy/infrastructure, and energy/fuel sectors. GTM is sales-led with enterprise field-sales motion, WhatsApp-direct inside sales, and channel partners (transportists) recruited to the marketplace at zero cost.

Recylink monetizes through annual SaaS subscriptions priced on a quote basis (sized to company waste volume and needs) plus professional services revenue from environmental consulting, regulatory gap analysis, transportist selection, and corporate education programs. The company holds B Corporation certification (since 2020), is backed by CORFO, and participates in Climatech Chile, Fundación Basura, and the Net Zero 2030 initiative. Capital history is modest — a $300,000 Katapult round in October 2021 and a small ABB-linked entry in October 2025 — and headcount sits in the 11–50 range, consistent with an early-growth-stage private company.

Direct peers

• Rubicon Technologies: US-based B2B waste and recycling technology company operating a digital marketplace that connects waste generators with haulers and recyclers. Most directly comparable peer: same two-sided SaaS-plus-marketplace model targeting enterprise waste generators.
• Enevo: Finnish-origin waste management analytics SaaS providing sensor-based container monitoring, route optimization, and waste data dashboards to municipalities and enterprises. Comparable as a software-led waste intelligence and tracking platform.

Broad incumbents

• Waste Management Inc. (WM): Largest North American waste services company, operating hauling, recycling, and disposal plus a growing portfolio of digital tools (e.g., Recycle Right, WM SmartTruck). Overlaps with Recylink in enterprise waste management and recycling marketplace ambitions but as a broad incumbent rather than a pure software specialist.
• Veolia: Global environmental services major with strong LatAm operations (including hazardous waste, water, and circular economy services) and digital solutions for enterprise waste compliance. Comparable as a large incumbent offering waste compliance and circular-economy services that Recylink addresses via software.
• Suez Recycling and Recovery: Global water and waste management major with digital platforms for industrial waste tracking and compliance across multiple geographies. Comparable in the regulatory/compliance and materials recovery space, with a much broader service portfolio.

Emerging players

• WasteHero: Finnish smart waste management SaaS providing route optimization, fill-level monitoring, and digital tools to waste haulers and municipalities. Comparable as a software-only waste intelligence platform targeting similar operational and compliance pain points.
• Cootrace: Colombian waste traceability platform serving industrial waste generators in Latin America with chain-of-custody and regulatory reporting. Closest geographic and functional peer to Recylink in the LatAm B2B waste traceability niche.
• Recycle Coach: Canadian waste management software provider offering education, engagement, and tracking tools primarily to municipalities and waste haulers. Comparable as a software-led recycling/circular economy platform with educational and compliance components.
• Plastiks: Portugal/Spain-based plastic recovery marketplace that connects brands with recycling and recovery providers and issues plastic-recovery certificates. Comparable as a digital marketplace enabling circular economy transactions between generators and providers of waste solutions.

Others

• Greyparrot: UK-based AI waste analytics platform using computer vision to characterize waste streams at Material Recovery Facilities. Adjacent enabling technology for waste data and traceability that could integrate with or compete alongside Recylink's tracking module.
