The World's First Zero Waste to Landfill Event Solution
Powered by The Asher® – a Malaysian innovation that turns unsorted event waste into inert ash, with no landfill impact.
VISION
Turning Waste into Impact. One Event at a Time.
At GZW RETURN™, we believe every event has the power to leave a positive legacy — not just a footprint.
Large-scale conferences, exhibitions, and summits can generate up to 10,000 kg of mixed waste per event, much of which ends up in landfills due to time constraints, contamination, or lack of viable sorting systems. From food waste and packaging to signage, decor, and discarded materials, these “invisible costs” of events are rarely captured — let alone addressed.
We’re here to change that.
By eliminating waste to landfill and replacing outdated disposal systems with data-driven, zero-waste solutions, we help venues and organisers not just meet ESG reporting goals — but lead the transition to measurable environmental action.
Powered by The Asher®, a Malaysian-engineered waste elimination system, our service reduces event waste into inert ash with no residue, no odour, and no need for segregation. This isn’t recycling — this is definitive landfill diversion at source.
Together with forward-thinking venues, sponsors, and government partners, we’re shaping the future of sustainable events — one waste stream, one data point, one impact story at a time.

GZW RETURN™ is the world's first zero-waste-to-landfill pilot service for events and venues. We partner with your existing waste contractor to ensure your waste is treated via The Asher®, a Malaysian innovation featured on Tedx, the Edge, BFM and more — converting unsorted waste into ash within hours, with complete diversion from landfill. This initiative supports ESG reporting, carbon tracking, and Malaysia’s circular economy targets.

HOW IT WORKS
Simple Process, Powerful Results
Event Waste
Collected, tagged, and recorded at source — no sorting required.
Transfer
Transported by licensed waste contractors to The Asher® facility for processing.
Ashed
Event waste is reduced to inert, non-toxic ash via The Asher®, with zero environmental leakage or landfill residue.
Data & Certs
You’ll receive ESG-aligned reporting (data + media), ash encased in The Return Globe, and a GZW RETURN™ Zero-Waste-to-Landfill Verification Certificate to support your sustainability disclosures.
JOIN THE PILOT - JULY-DEC 2025
Be Among the First to Lead the Shift
We are inviting a select group of event venues, corporate partners, government agencies, universities, and schools to join our Zero-Waste-to-Landfill Pilot Programme by enrolling a qualifying large-scale event — defined as 300 or more attendees — scheduled between July and December 2025 in Klang Valley, Malaysia.
As a pilot partner, you will:
-
Gain early access to Malaysia’s first landfill diversion system for events and institutions
-
Receive verified data tracking, photographic documentation, and a GZW RETURN™ Zero-Waste-to-Landfill Verification Certificate for every event or initiative you implement with us
-
Be featured as part of Malaysia’s first national-level feasibility study on zero-waste-to-landfill systems
-
Contribute to shaping a proposed national framework for long-term ESG alignment and landfill diversion policy
Each participating event will be documented and assessed as part of a comprehensive impact report, supporting both ESG performance and a potential nationwide rollout model.
Slots are limited. Sponsorship and government-aligned partnership support may be available to help offset implementation and reporting costs.
Together, we’re building the future of waste management in Malaysia — one verified impact at a time.
Waste is humanity’s shared crisis — and we must act now. GZW RETURN™ starts with large-scale events as the first step in a global movement to eliminate landfill dependency. Join us in building a future where every event leaves no waste behind — only impact.
