Precious Plastic was launched in the Netherlands in 2012. It brings together the solutions needed to tackle plastic waste, by boosting recycling, promoting new biodegradable materials or adopting zero waste lifestyles - whatever works.

  • In workspaces, waste plastic is transformed into valuable raw materials (Shredder, Extrusion, Sheetpress, Injection and Mix).
  • Collection Points gather plastic from neighbours, organisations and businesses to be processed by local Shredder Workspaces.
  • Community Points grow the local recycling network.
  • Machine Shops produce and build parts, machines and moulds for others in the local recycling network.
  • Members help with plastic collection and spreading the word.

The idea is to get everyone involved and playing their part.
