and have teamed up to build the first plastic recycling centre for a UN peacekeeping mission. 🌍
Commissioned by UNISFA and supported by UNGSC ETSU/REACT, we designed and installed a full recycling workshop for — the UN mission working to protect civilians and build lasting peace in Abyei, on the disputed border between Sudan and South Sudan.
From collection, sorting and cleaning, to shredding, pressing, injection, extrusion and fiberizing — a complete waste-to-resource cycle, built for the people who will run it long after we’ve left.
Turning plastic waste into resources, where it matters most.
Stay tuned — more to come! 👀
