Build Project
The project involves creating a device which will take PET plastics from bottles and make it into a ribbon before heating and creating a 3D-print filament. As consumerism continues as an all time high and less is being recycled (roughly 5%), we propose a way (like many others) to reduce the waste created. This 3D-print filament and the service of 3D printing products can be sold to other small businesses, clubs and societies etc. Thus helping our community while reducing waste and making more sustainable consumerism. The target audience will be Sackville and the surrounding community.
