PlasticDrawn

Project of the ecosystem TechFactory Puglia. The name of the client, if it exists, is not published.

Challenge

Plastic bottles and packaging remain a waste, while 3D printing continues to buy virgin filament.

Solution

PlasticDrawn takes that waste and turns it into a filament that can be used on 3D printers. The waste becomes production material.

Technology

Plastic recycling and filament extrusion, inside the Mantre research line.

Result

The result is a closed loop on the material: waste, filament, printed object. The treated kilos and the grade technical data sheets are not yet published.
