Welcome to your creative plastic recycling space.
Here you can view our range of machines to help you get started.
What will I need?
Recycling plastic couldn’t be any simpler, We offer an opportunity to recycle, build and create waste plastic to something more valuable using our simple and effective machines. Suitable for homes, backyards, businesses, schools, labs and community projects where the potential to drive education and entrepreneurship through the sustainability of recycling.
Our machines are designed, engineered and built in-house to give you realiable and cost effective machinary.
Our machines include:
- Single axial shredder (Precious Plastic equivalent)
- Double axial shredder
- Hand Injection Moulder
- Extruder -1 inch barrel
Single axial shredder

Background to the project
WHAT IS PRECIOUS PLASTIC?
Ultimately, āPrecious Plasticā is an online global community that contributes tools, skills and knowledge in the aid to collect, recycle, build and sell recycled plastic goods through a series of machines, documentation, and video tutorials.
More importantly, a platform is created to empower people across the planet to start working with plastic waste locally while trying to localise plastic recycling technologies, infrastructures and knowledge by providing open-source designs for machines, moulds and consumer products.
HOW DOES PRECIOUS PLASTIC WORK?
The Precious Plastic community provides an open source platform that welcomes ideas, contributions, discussions and anyone to get involved by developing machinery, product design and business opportunities to buy and sell recycled plastics projects and of course this allows for a cleaner environment by collecting un-wanted plastic. .
Persons all around the world are encouraged to become part of the āarmyā to fight pollution by signing up for free on the websiteĀ www.preciousplastic.comĀ . From their, members can watch tutorials, earn dedication points, participate in discussions and download blueprints for recycle machinery. Furthermore, a platform is also given to sell or buy machinery and recycled plastic products.
