At the beginning of 2016, designer Dave Hakkens from Eindhoven teamed up with entrepreneurs in the field of recycling plastic waste in the Maldives to create equipment for plastic waste management. Plastic is widely used in modern household settings but also causes significant harm to the environment.

Dave's Public Course

Currently, plastic production outpaces destruction. Intrigued by the potential solutions, the Dutch designer launched a course that explains various ways to recycle plastic. The key feature of this idea is the opportunity for users to suggest applications for the recycled material.

On Dave's website, preciousplastic.com, detailed explanations of the process are provided. All information is available for free download. According to Dave, the website will remain active indefinitely, allowing anyone interested to explore plastic material recycling opportunities.

The designer believes plastic offers a great business opportunity. Examples like using waste as raw material for production have long been an avenue for profitability. For instance, creating bricks from waste, with minimal costs, serves as an excellent source of substantial income.

Development of Dave's mechanism took approximately two years. The main objectives during its creation were accessibility of materials, ease of use, and simple assembly.
  • Accessible materials
  • Easy operation
  • Straightforward assembly

Emphasis on these factors was made considering the construction could be done by anyone in domestic settings. However, the information is currently only available in English, limiting access for non-English speakers worldwide. Over time, wider dissemination of the idea may lead to significant achievements.
