Abstract<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Almost all plastic products are designed from the start to be made from clean virgin plastic, it is close to impossible to make these products economically from post consumer waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We need to start designing products that can only be made economically from the plastic waste no one wants. This requires a complete change in design thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this presentation we will look at how the introduction of woven fibre fused together with recycled soft plastics can create a whole new design language for the manufacture of plastic parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
