Junk Revolution: Jangjo’s Concrete Step in Tackling the Waste Crisis

Jangjo has initiated the Junk Revolution, a movement aimed at transforming the way we sort, manage, and process waste in a structured and sustainable manner. This initiative emerged in response to the growing accumulation of improperly sorted waste in public spaces, which poses a threat to the environment and burdens landfills.

Through educational campaigns at shopping center like Gandaria City and Kota Kasablanka, Jangjo encourages visitors to start sorting their waste at the source. Education is provided through signage, tenant training, and interactive booths.

The sorting process takes place directly at the campaign sites, involving tenants, visitors, and area operations staff. Collected waste is processed at Jangjo’s facility using the JOWI system for efficiency and transparency, before being further handled by partners. In collaboration with Indocement, waste is converted into RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel), while Magalarva transforms food waste into animal feed using Black Soldier Fly (BSF) technology.

At Plaza Indonesia and FX, the organic waste sorting program has significantly reduced food waste that could potentially pollute the environment.

Currently, Jangjo processes up to 50 tons of waste per day from commercial areas across Jakarta. During the Astranauts 2025 event in Jakarta, Joe Hansen, Founder and CEO of Jangjo, stated that a balance between humanity and nature can be achieved through technological innovation and sustainability—exactly the spirit behind the Junk Revolution.
