Turning Zurich waste into
precious objects
Visit our courses at Dynamo in Zurich and use our machines for your projects!
Precious Plastic Zurich is a project and a part of the global community of people concerned with the use and recycling of plastic. We believe that the value of this resource should not be lost at the end of products’ lives.
There are many creative ways to reuse plastic and produce new valuable objects from it. Follow us on social media or join our events to spread the awareness about plastic recycling!
what are we doing
collect

inject
At Precious Plastic Zurich we focus on workshop development and small scale production of objects from recycled plastic. We partner up with organizations like Student Project House and Nachhaltichkeitswoche. In August 2023 we became a part of the Dynamo workshops offer.
Precious Plastic Zurich is a project by an association called Precious ConneXion, which works on a broader spectrum of questions which are aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals.
Our Products
All our products are made from recycled plastic and some contain metal elements. The colors are unique and depend on the plastic we have collected and how it got mixed in the injector. The products can be disassembled and materials recycled again. If you would like to buy any of our products, write us a message or check out the Precios Plastic Bazar page!
