Why Loopy
Plastics are EVERYWHERE – Take a look around you! Plastic gives us an amazing amount of flexibility to live our lives, but they stick around for far too long.
Only about 9% of plastic ever gets recycled and the rest end up in landfills or the oceans. That’s why Loopy exists – To help solve our plastics crisis, one step at a time.
At Loopy, our goals are to:
-Find sustainable solutions for single use + hard or impossible to recycle products
-Educate people about plastics and the plastics crisis
-Upcycle crop waste, preventing crop burning, landfilling and air pollution
For us, sustainability isn’t a buzzword. It’s our entire reason for existing.
As material science experts, we know and understand materials and use only the best, industry-leading, high-quality materials to make our products.
These materials and products are designed to last or designed to compost, depending on the product, prioritizing an eco-friendly, greener, sustainable future.
Upcycling plant waste from farming directly contributes to positive environmental changes. This agricultural waste would otherwise be burnt, creating more pollution. Or, sent to landfill.
Products designed with less plastic are a sustainable win, plus many biomaterials produce better + stronger products, which allows us to design lighter parts with up to 20-30% less weight and 50-100% less plastic than they’d traditionally have.
According to CleanTech Group, up to 85% of plastic-based products can now be made with biomaterials. Let’s work together and lead that change!
