Our impact so far
Sustainability
"Our focus is on preventing plastic pollution at an early stage, reducing plastic consumption, and promoting sustainable circular systems. In doing so, we combine environmental responsibility with social solutions and encourage people to take an active part."
What upcycling means to us
In our workshops, upcycling is our top priority. We want to avoid downcycling and create items that can be recycled and used multifunctionally. When developing our products, we make sure to use as few resources and harmful materials as possible. The same applies to the packaging of the finished product.
Re- & Upcycling
The collected plastic bottles are recycled in any case.
We process the HDPE & PP plastic in our own plastic factories into products.
We sell the PET bottles on to local recyclers, as we cannot yet afford the large machines and their investment of around 8-10 million francs.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
With our activities in India, Ghana, and Nicaragua, we have created a tangible project with maximum impact that tackles both poverty and waste management.
By creating jobs with fair wages and raising awareness among local people about the plastic problem, we are tackling the problem at its root.
Our Focus
.
Sustainable Development Goal 1
By distributing food at our regular events, creating jobs, and fostering a circular economy in which our local team transforms plastic waste into plastic flakes and new products that can be reintegrated into the economy through sales, we are tackling the problem of poverty.
.
Sustainable Development Goal 12
By creating jobs with fair wages, raising awareness among local people about the plastic problem, and actively recycling and upcycling plastic waste, we are tackling the problem at its root and addressing Sustainable Development Goal 12.
