Precious Plastic – Plastic recycling workshop with Gaau1up

Facing the global plastic waste issue, Gaau1 Up believes that besides the development of recycling technology it is of even greater importance to educate the public to care for the environment. However, the general public has limited knowledge about plastic recycling. Narrowing this knowledge gap is the vision of Gaau1 Up. In this workshop, a Gaau1 Up team member will explain the plastic waste issue and help you better understand the sorting of plastic for recycling. You will learn how to turn plastic waste into flakes using the “Manual Shredder” and how to remould plastic with the “Injection Machine”. This workshop will be conducted by Gaau1 Up, a Hong Kong member of the Precious Plastic Community.
