Exeter City Council, GB and regional manufacturers turn beach plastics into new products

Exeter City Council, GB Regional Manufacturers Beach Plastic

Complete

Project partner Odyssey Innovation added The Muncher Cruncher to the city's Materials Reclamation Facility. This machine turns collected beach plastics into pellets for reuse in consumer products. Exeter supplies pellets to Circular & Co. for the production of a reusable coffee cup made from 50% recycled plastic. Half of all sales go to a local group that recovers unclaimed fishing gear from beaches. Plymplastics also receives processed beach plastic for the production of the E-comb.
