We tackle hard-to-recycle plastics and textiles to keep more out of landfill and in circulation.
CLOSING THE CIRCULARITY LOOP
10 Billion Tonnes
of plastic wasting away in our environment.
Let’s put it to good use.
Only 10% Recycled
The rest is discarded and ends up in landfill. We see it as a valuable resource.
<1% Textiles Recycled
into new textiles. The majority is downcycled or sent to landfill or incineration.
We disrupt the linear take-make-waste economy of plastics. We use enzymes to break plastics and textiles back into their original building blocks (monomers) so they can be recreated into new apparel, packaging, airbags (you name it).
OUR TECHNOLOGY
1.
Collect end-of-life plastics.
2.

Creating monomers.

3.
Monomers are purified.
4.
Ready for recreation.
Textiles and mixed plastics are notoriously hard to recycle.
Until Now.

Samsara Eco acknowledges the Aboriginal Countries we live and work on and pay our respects to all First Nations Elders, past and present, whose cultures are among the oldest continuing cultures in human history. Samsara Eco operates on the unceded lands of the Cammeraygal, the Gadigal, the Ngambri, and the Ngunnawal people. We recognise that the climate crisis is intricately connected to social inequality and will not be solved by technology alone. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.
