Our Mission
Our mission is to remove plastic from the environment and provide a working environment that our employees value.
Plastic pollution is a crisis worldwide, and here in Guatemala the rivers and streams have become critically littered with waste. We are harvesting this plastic from the environment and transforming it into products which can help clean the environment and create jobs. We are seeking donations to expand our operations and reduce overhead, so that we can remove more plastic and provide our products at competitive prices.
We have developed a method to construct quality products using a blended material which incorporates 45%-50% repurposed plastic litter. Currently we are harvesting plastic from one waterway in Ciudad Vieja, using a surface barricade which collects litter as it floats downstream. At our current capacity, we are already able to remove approximately 250 pounds of plastic from the river daily. We have recently completed construction on a demonstration building made almost entirely from our plastic products. We are now looking to market our products and build more plastic removal sites.
We deeply appreciate your interest, and your support, in turning pollution into homes and decorations and ridding Guatemala of plastic.
