Learn how we create change

FÜR GESTALTUNG ZÜRICH

This much plastic (180,000 kg) enters the ocean every 15 seconds.

But, we have a solution to address the root cause.

Addressing the root cause

•Wastepicker recyclers in developing countries have little negotiating power with middlemen over the price they receive for their plastics.

•The low value of plastic leads to irresponsible disposal and environmental contamination.

• Our model and mobile technology ensures wastepicker recyclers receive a fair trade rate.

• Middlemen earn a commission based on the price that the wastepicker recyclers receive.

Fair trade recycled plastic

• Just as fair trade agriculture helps to increase the value of produce for farmers, our process makes discarded plastics more valuable for wastepicker recyclers.

• Our model builds trust through transparency and accountability which results in lower contamination levels and higher quality plastic.

Leave a message that will resonate with consumers.

•We partner with sustainable brands to recycle our ethically sourced plastic into eco-friendly product lines. •We give consumers the option to create change through their purchasing decisions.
