First we wanna give you a big thank you for sharing precious_plastic to everyone. Here we wanna share our process to you.

This summer in Taipei, we are having an exhibition called “plastic lost 塑膠迷路了” which using 1500 bottles to make a playground for kids. Most important thing is that four girls in the team also have build your machines (the shredding and extrusion) to not only show to local families the possibility of recycling plastic but also looking forward to further developing your idea with the community.

Looking forward to the impact of preciousplastic!
