Answer:
Polyfloss is an innovative plastic recycling process, inspired by the principle of candy-floss machines. It transforms neglected waste thermoplastics into a fine plastic wool, which can then be re-used for applications including insulation, packaging, garment production and product design. This unique machine allows the establishment of contextual recycling and small scale circles of re-employment, which is rare for polymers, usually and historically dependent on at-scale manufacturing and production engineering knowledge.
Here is a video of the Polyfloss Factory explaining the technology:
Field Ready are pioneering the use of this innovative plastics recycling machine in Nepal to meet existing and anticipated humanitarian needs. Field Ready are establishing local production capacity and making raw materials from plastic waste for use in insulation for temporary shelters used by internally displaced people and landless communities. We are also working on developing other products for international aid organizations and the local market and undertaking vital materials research. The project is based on the principle of making humanitarian supplies where they are needed and addressing questions of inclusion, accessibility, livelihoods, waste, environment and many other problems that victims of emergencies and disasters face, sometimes long after the disaster is over.
