Utilitarian

Creating Circular Communities

As we strive for a more Circular Economy, we must work together;

Government, Business and the Community.

We must make it easier to do the right thing.

Utilitarian is a new software platform:

U by Utilitarian - a free mobile app; powered by a closed enterprise platform for Government and Business to educate, engage and support community members

A single, integrated ecosystem designed and built to empower Australians to change behaviours in a way that works for them.

For Government

Collecting, treating, and disposing of Australian domestic waste costs local government an estimated $3.5 billion annually*.

Aspirational targets for the recovery of materials, development of infrastructure and the creation of a local, circular economy.

Ensuring everyday Australians are actively participating, engaged, and doing what they can to change behaviours remains one of the biggest challenges for all Governments in the decades to come.

*Australian Local Government Association

For Business

Organisations in Australia and around the world recognise the need for change, and many are now taking steps the minimise the impact that their goods and services have on the environment.

As customers and governments continue to push business to do more - the relationship between them is evolving to one of interdependency.

In a Circular Economy - Businesses will rely on their customers to change their behaviours, and must adopt new ways to engage them as part of the solution.

For You

Most Australians just want to do the right thing.

Easy access to support, solutions, education from trusted, reliable sources remains a challenge for most.

Government, Brands and other Service providers can ensure people have every opportunity to make the right decisions, take the right actions and be empowered to be a part of the change we need.

And be rewarded for it…

Testimonials

  • Ashley, Mum - Bundeena

    Following a talk at the local school, my daughter was excited to tell me in her own words about a ‘very cool’ app and what it does for the planet and our future. Once downloaded, the app was easy to use and the whole family has learnt how to be more sustainable. The kids are learning from it and using the app to see what we can do to deliver a better future.

  • Bundeena Public School

    Using the Utilitarian app has given students a deeper understanding of the importance of recycling and their role in maintaining a sustainable future. When students focus on a specific item to reuse/recycle they are learning to make a conscious effort to avoid landfill with unwanted and discarded goods.

  • Guido, Revolve ReCYCLING

    When Tim offered to trial his Utilitarian platform to collect preloved bicycles the success was beyond all expectations. In a couple of weeks, we collected 74 bicycles within this small community of 2600 residents. We look forward to continuing to partner with Utilitarian to help communities to collect and divert bicycles from landfill and give them a second life.
