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.

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.

Your turn

Can it be Made Without?

Every product made with our materials moves someone out of poverty and keeps impossible waste out of landfill. And if you think we can do better, tell us.
