What is Precious Plastics

Precious Plastics is an open-source global movement by One Army to tackle the plastic waste taking over our world.

Precious Plastic Cincy ventures to bring that same movement to Cincinnati starting in 2021.

Starting Precious Plastic Cincy

Acquired from the open-source market off Precious Plastics website we began with a line of plastic recycling equipment and set up shop in a 400 Sqft rental.

Developing a Process

Hands-on Research and development through mold and plastic experimentation lead us down many pathways of products.

Our Process

Through our research, we were able to pinpoint down a specific flow for how we believe plastic recycling works most successfully.

Material Focus

Currently, our focus is creating more single-stream plastic sources from local businesses. These businesses don’t have many options for disposing of waste other then a landfill. The First Single source plastic we received was pallets of a discontinued toy. This toy was great for us because it was all ABS and already in cubes.
