GARBAGE CLINIC FOUNDATION

What GARBAGE CLINIC FOUNDATION does

Garbage Clinic & Infratech Pvt. Ltd. (GCIPL), operating alongside its social-impact arm Garbage Clinic Foundation, is an India-based, ISO-certified solid waste management company founded in 2010 and headquartered in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh. The company designs, manufactures, and services a proprietary line of composting and waste-processing equipment - notably the KOMPONI® semi-automatic organic waste processor (combining PULVIZ® and MULCHIT® components), the ECOTHERM® PLC-controlled automatic composting machine, the HORTIZ® shredder, the COMPATTO® baling machine, the battery-operated GARBAGE AMBULANCE® collection vehicle, and the EARTHYKHAD® organic compost - together with ancillary equipment (organic and plastic shredders, plastic washing/granule lines, CBG plants, aerobic digesters).

GCIPL generates revenue across six streams: SWM consultancy (DPR/RFP/feasibility studies), infrastructure setup and equipment sales, operations and managed services, franchise fees, training and capacity building, and EPR compliance services for CPCB-regulated producers. GTM is multi-channel: direct enterprise sales to Urban Local Bodies (ULBs), corporates, and institutions; a Garbage Clinic franchise model for community-level decentralized operations; and government procurement via GeM and tenders. The company is empaneled with the Greater Noida Authority, KDMC, and SUDA (Govt. of West Bengal) and positions itself against India's $20-25$ trillion-kg scientifically-processed waste opportunity through technology validated by CSIR-NPL, TERI, and NPC. Operations span seven Indian states across 14+ active cities, with an IEC/behaviour-change network active in 50+ cities reaching 10 lakh+ citizens and 100+ institutions; the founder, Mr. Praveen Nayak, is a former CPCB Expert Committee member and nationally recognized "Garbagologist" leading a small, founder-driven team that has so far grown without disclosed external venture funding.
