Mission Statement

Provide a local solution to creatively upcycle plastic

Description

Inventurous identifies plastic waste streams in local communities that can be utilized as a resource to upcycle into high value products. We take this plastic and with community involvement sort it, shred it, then place it in our 3D printers to create objects such as furniture, sculpture and other objects that our community needs, such as shade structures and school projects.
