Reduce your plastic footprint<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

by getting certified with Plastic Credit.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

How do we do it?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Through an offset system among plastic generators, consumers, collectors, recyclers and processors in general, by issuing Plastic Credit\u00ae.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los Plastic Credits\u00ae<\/strong> are an environmental tool that certifies that the holder has been responsible for generating, collecting, recycling and\/or processing the equivalent of 1 ton of plastic waste. They can therefore be purchased to offset a plastic footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Plastic Credit\u00ae<\/strong> is used to educate consumers, fund and formalize recyclers by creating new collection centers, and drive plastic processing by giving it circularity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Plastic Credit IS NOT A FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT<\/strong>; it is a certificate<\/strong> representing the collection of one ton of recovered plastic<\/strong>, (1.5 tons of CO2<\/sub><\/strong>) that have been recovered and\/or recycled<\/strong>, which would otherwise have ended up in the natural environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Credits are measurable, traceable and verifiable<\/strong>, which guarantees that they represent real reductions in plastic  waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plastic credits can be purchased by organization<\/strong>s and other end users to take action on their plastic footprint. For example, combined with accurate measurement, plastic credits can allow companies to offset their plastic generation and become plastic neutral, by removing from nature as much plastic waste as they use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a solution that encourages the reduction and  circularity  of plastic waste<\/strong>, while driving efforts to recover and add value to plastics<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We reduce your plastic footprint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Certification with Plastic Credit makes it possible to offset, kilo by kilo, the plastic liabilities generated. The plastic footprint of a product, a brand or an organization can be fully or partially neutralized, by auditing and certifying the traceability of recycling operations. This provides transparency and a return in exchange.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We promote Prevention to Reduce your Plastic Footprint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We raise public awareness through prevention projects that encourage people to use less plastic in daily life; we know plastic ends up in our oceans, and by reducing the plastic footprint we educate the next generation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
