Rethink Plastic
Plastic plays an important role in our lives as an economical carrier to keep our food, beverages, medication and many other essential products safe and protected from external elements that can damage or spoil them.
Most common types of plastic can be recycled if there is a mechanism to dispose it properly. Further modern technology has made it possible to make plastic biodegradable and compostable too.
The Circular Economy
What is the circular economy of plastic? This refers to the latest model that has been created by organisation that talks about the importance of moving away from conventional thinking that states that we need to TAKE from the environment, MAKE products and DISPOSE into the environment where plastic would end up in a waterway, landfill or the ocean.
We need to extend the DISPOSE part of the equation by including RECYCLE / BIODEGRADE, RE-MAKE, COLLECT and then continue on with the cycle. This new philosophy ensure the reduction of virgin polymer coming into the system and reusing what is already in the system.
Join us
We strive to reduce the amount of virgin plastic that is present in the environment and replace it with 100% or partially recycled plastic.
By joining our movement we will help you promote your product on this website as one of our key partners in environmental sustainability.
