Precious Plastic develops free and open source machines, techniques, and digital infrastructure for people anywhere in the world to collaborate together and make a living transforming plastic waste into beautifully crafted products. We aim to eliminate plastic waste altogether through empowering a decentralized network of small businesses, community enterprises, and entrepreneurs to build local, circular economies from the ground up. Our package includes all the necessary tools to start a small plastic recycling business (400+ registered already), including detailed blueprints for four DIY recycling machines, 40 instructional video tutorials, a digital platform to collaborate with our community (70.000 people), a map to find other people wanting to get started (10k+), and an online marketplace to buy and sell parts, machines, and products (250K projected revenue for 2019). Together we can rebuild linear mass production and consumption in favor of a participatory future without waste.
