The shredder, extruder, and thermopress - equipment for the complete plastic recycling cycle - were manufactured in Ukraine by teams from the NGO Eco Misto and the NGO Ostriv Platform based on open-source Precious Plastic projects as part of the #TOLOCAR Makers Innovation Award.
This project aimed to adapt open drawings and diagrams to the Ukrainian nomenclature and the existing materials market. We strive to promote plastic recycling by creating our own equipment and developing a proactive community of engineers, architects, and artists who use recycled plastic for object design and craft products.
Using our developments, you will be able to assemble your own equipment more easily and affordably, adapting it to your needs.
