Turn Plastic Waste
into something people want to use.
We have developed a technology that will use some of the 350 million tons of global plastic waste to make a product line of construction components that is easy for people to build with. Similar parts will be made out of concrete.
Overview
The new connection technology is called a Key Thread. Software engineers can take these threads and apply them to construction components that can be 3D printed. There will be 3D printed molds. Both part and mold files will have machining software that generates the Gcode for 5-axis tool movements. This is the foundation for making many of the parts, molds and machinable applications. The part files are be uploaded to Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for optimizing their design. I have done all of this before on three other new threads that I could not commercialized.
The Next Evolution of Building Materials
Plastic waste is a global problem that needs new materials and products that will consume it.

Incredible Numbers
Plastic Waste
The world produces around 350 Million Metric Tons of plastic waste every year.
Recycling
On average, just 9% of plastic is collected for recycling.
On the Rise
Ocean Plastic Pollution On Track to Rise to 29 Million Metric Tons by 2040.
