Print Squares is creating machinery to recycle PET bottles into strong 3D printing filament, with plans to scale up production. They also collaborate on making prosthetics for landmine victims in Laos from recycled plastics and are doing R&D o other potential applications for PET in areas such as cheap construction materials/affordable homes, etc. Vientiane faces a severe plastic waste problem, with up to 70 tonnes generated daily, mostly from discarded drinking water bottles, leading to overflowing landfills and environmental pollution. While some recycling efforts exist, Print Squares is focussed on repurposing plastic bottles into useful products rather than just raising awareness through marketing campaigns.

Trash is Nice is a recycling centre based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, where we turn discarded plastic into unique, long-lasting objects. Using innovative tools, machines, and techniques, we transform plastic waste into beautiful and functional pieces, from glass coasters to furniture and trophies, revealing the hidden potential of this often overlooked material. By collecting plastic locally and giving it a new life, we actively work to prevent pollution. Their workshops for schools and community groups dive into the plastic lifecycle and our creative recycling process, empowering participants to make their own items from waste. This hands-on experience not only educates but also inspires positive changes in plastic use and recycling habits within the community. As part of the global Precious Plastic network, Trash is Nice is committed to reshaping perceptions of plastic—from a cheap, discarded material to a source of unique and meaningful creations.
