Where it begins.

Bottle caps, crate lids, injection-mould offcuts — picked up where the local recyclers stop. Sorted by polymer before anything else happens.

Raw · mixed HDPE / PP / PS
02 / 05 · Reduction

Reduced to 4mm.

Washed, dried, shredded to a uniform pellet. No pigments, no virgin material added. The colour is whatever came in this week.

Pellet · ⌀ 4mm
03 / 05 · Feed

Into the hopper.

Pellets gravity-feed into the injection barrel. From here it's one continuous machine — melt, screw, pressure, mold.

Gravity feed

Heated to 180°C.

The screw advances and brings the polymer up to a workable state along the length of the barrel — metered, never overcooked.
