Plastics y Awareness
PROJECTS.
Our program focuses on intercepting plastic waste before it pollutes our ecosystems, transforming it into valuable raw material and closing the loop of the Circular Economy.
The core of our project is Mechanical Recycling. This physical process allows plastics to retain their essential structure so they can be reused time and time again.
Collection and Sorting: Plastic (mainly PET, HDPE, and PP) is gathered through our drop-off points and collection partnerships. At the sorting facilities, it is meticulously separated by type and color.
The success of the Circular Economy depends on constant collaboration among three key actors:
Public and Social Institutions
We work with local governments to optimize collection routes and establish inclusive waste management policies.
Additionally, we collaborate with urban recycler cooperatives to professionalize their labor, ensure a fair income, and guarantee material traceability.
Private Companies
Companies play a dual role:
Funding and Sponsorship: They provide the necessary capital for infrastructure, machinery, and education.
Demand for Recycled Materials: They commit to purchasing the raw material (recycled pellets) generated by the program, ensuring the economic sustainability of the cycle and incorporating recycled plastics into their own packaging or products.
