The World has a problem: Plastic waste
Since 1950 approximately 8.3 billion tonnes of plastics have been produced globally, half of which in the last 13 years alone.
This corresponds to approx. 400 million tons in CO2 emission per year.
This corresponds to approx. 400 million tons in CO2 emission per year.
A Detriment to our Environment
Over 5 million tonnes of plastic waste seep into our environment and ocean every year. Around 11% of this plastic waste, stems from the maritime industry in the shape of fishing nets, trawls, ropes, and boxes.

The World is Waking Up
A systemic shift towards a circular economy for plastic, in which plastic never becomes waste, is required.
If we do not rethink to recapture and recycle plastic waste for a sustainable future, we risk billions of tons of plastic in our oceans by 2050.

Det er nu muligt at producere fjernvarmerør af Grøn Plast - dvs. genanvendt plast fra gamle fiskenet, trawl og reb, som led i et innovativt samarbejde mellem LOGSTOR, Lemvig varmeværk, BROEN Valve Technologies og Plastix.
"Hos Plastic har vi et ønske om at integrere grøn plast i produkter, og derfor er det vigtigt, at vi bakker op om industriens foregangsmænd som Logstor, der viser vilje, evne og mod til at gå forrest.

PLASTIX er klar til at levere Grøn Plast til Danmark og resten af verden. På #K2019 kunne man opleve, hvordan Plastix omdanner slidte fiskenet til genanvendt plast, som bliver brug til f.eks. at fremstille designerstole. Vi er bare helt klar til den grønne omstilling.
