The solution begins with sorting
One of the major challenges on our path towards a circular economy remains the lacking recycling infrastructure across remote areas throughout the world. A key piece to establishing circularity lies in the first step of the recycling process: a clean on-the-spot sorting of plastic waste.
By enabling flexible remote plastic identification at the push of a button, our solution enables clean plastic waste streams wherever large industrial solutions don't fit.
Combining our technology with your ideas, we can contribute towards closing the loop
Imagine you were able to identify plastic waste at the push of a button with technology that fits into your pocket - what would that mean for our enviornment?
- Plastic waste in oceans and rivers could be sorted right on the spot.
Improve the quality and value of waste streams while freeing our waters from plastics. - Communities could be educated about a key stage in the recycling process.
Create awareness around our plastic waste challenge. - What comes to your mind?
Help us put our solution into the hands of those who create an impact.
