Precious Plastic Bangkok
Precious Plastic was founded in response to the growing environmental waste crisis where the improper discarding of products improperly resulted in significant negative impacts on the built and natural environment. Precious Plastic’s solution is to create an alternative global recycling system, in which they create open-source machines, products, and online toolkits for the general public to use. The organization created and continuously improved upon the first three versions of its recycling machines before discovering a perfect technological fit in Version 4. There are many Precious Plastic networks worldwide, and together with the headquarters in Bangkok, Thailand, the organization works to make major transformations in the biodegradable process of products.
