Focused  Research Effort for Sustainable Habits

"Our mission is to implement and study the sustainability of a recycling process for clear plastic PLA products at UWSP."

The FRESH project is a collection system for PLA plastics that aims to collect, store, rinse and recycle the materials back into their original state. The Project was started in 2011 on the University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point campus by the Wisconsin Institute of Sustainable Technology.

 

This brief video explains the goals and processes of the FRESH project and explains the benefits for implimenting it on campus.
