Plastic waste solutions showcased

On the occasion of World Environment Day, Fablab Nepal, Kleanit Upcyclers, and Paramendo Nepal jointly organized an event titled “PLASTIC: From Used to Useful” on June 5, 2025, at Impact Hub Kathmandu. The program, held under the P2G (Plastic to Ghar) Project, focused on innovative approaches to managing plastic waste in Nepal through technology, awareness, and community engagement. Supported by the UK’s FCDO in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, Korea University, and local partners, the project promotes the conversion of plastic waste into practical household items.

The event featured a live demonstration of Nepal’s first cycle-powered plastic shredder, talk sessions on circular economy and behavioral change, and a Circular Bazar showcasing upcycled products by local entrepreneurs.
