Recycling
Recycling is the process of converting waste materials into new products, helping to conserve natural resources and reduce the need for raw material extraction. In a world where plastic pollution and climate change pose significant challenges, recycling offers a practical solution to minimize environmental damage and promote sustainability.
Our Recycling Workshops
Semula’s recycling workshops are designed to educate, inspire, and empower individuals and organizations to make informed decisions about waste management. By offering practical, hands-on experience, our workshops will show you how to recycle properly and how to integrate recycling practices into your life.
Plastic Waste Sorting and Identification
In this workshop, we teach participants how to properly sort plastic waste for recycling. You’ll learn how to identify the different types of plastic using resin identification codes (RIC) and the best practices for cleaning and preparing plastics for recycling.
Upcycled Plastic Coasters
As part of our recycling workshop, you will get to design and make your own coasters from recycled plastic. This hands-on project demonstrates the mechanical recycling process and shows how recycled plastic can be transformed into new, functional products.
