We turn the world's worst waste into material as good as new, ethically.

The world's only patented chemo-mechanical process that turns multiple types of “impossible” waste (mixed textiles, multi-layer plastic, coloured PET) into engineering-grade plastics and polyester yarn, fit for global supply chains.

We take the waste no one recycles

Metalised multi-layered plastics, soiled blended textiles, coloured PET bottles. The worst of the worst, with under 1% recycled worldwide.

02/03VerdiCycle

We separate it and extract the building blocks

Chemo-mechanical separation, extraction and purification. No pyrolysis, no gasification, no organic solvents. Water-based, at ~120°C.

The problem, and the point

This is sustainability
without compromise

Most of the world’s waste doesn’t get recycled. And most of the people who collect it don’t get paid a fair wage. Our material science turns previously unrecyclable waste into virgin-grade materials used by global brands, so we can graduate waste pickers out of poverty.

Brands Made Without®

World firsts

If it can’t be done, we usually do it first

Four things that didn’t exist on earth before we built them.

World first 1
chip-packet sunglasses

first ever.

Sunglasses from packets of chips

Project Shades. Sold out in five days, 100+ publications. The wrapper that wouldn’t recycle, on someone’s face.

World first 2
100% recycled sachet bottle

first ever.

100% recycled sachet bottle

Built with Unilever TRANSFORM and L’Oréal Big Bang. The sachet plastic that “had nowhere to go,” blow-moulded into the next bottle.

World first 3
3D print from packets of chips

first ever.

3D print from packets of chips

TRASH3D filaments and pellets. Patent-pending recycled polyolefin compositions for additive manufacturing.

World first 4
VerdiFLO yarn

first ever.

VerdiFLO™: yarn from impossible textile waste

Yarn-grade polyester recovered from soiled, torn, blended textile waste. The mixed feedstock that gets landfilled or burned today, returned to the loop as virgin-like fibre.
