In this episode on Tekniq, we venture into a plastic bottle recycling facility making PVC pipes, followed by coconut fibers being repurposed into floor mats. Furthermore, we witness a unique steam powered vehicles on rail. Later, we observe the production of steel spheres.

    When you start working in that place, say goodbye to your health.

    I like these guys with their safety Flip-Flops. Just in case their feet get ripped off by these machines, the shoes can be recycled too. 😄

  • Safety sandals -- check. Eye protection -- unnecessary. Gloves -- only for the supervisor. Fast moving, unguarded equipment -- of course. Open flame -- yup. Toxic fumes -- always. Scalding-hot black sludge created from dirty plastic -- delicious. Miraculous magical off-screen device that changes color of black sludge to any under the rainbow -- It exists, just ask them.

    I totally like the idea of this method of recycling plastic to create a new product that can be used again. The only thing I have an issue is that they are using another type plastic to wrap it up. There is a waste created by using that thin plastic bag to wrap individual spools when they are unwrapped, when instead you could just pack it in recycled paper which is better for the environment.

    Now I even more think that it´s smart to ban plastic drinking straws by the EU, replace them with useless paper straws to save the enviroment. Great contribution for saving the world!

  • How did hard black plastic turn into white soft plastic? Anyone know.

    Life is cheap and short in Pakistan. None of these workers survived the first year.
  • @ZappyOh
    Black sludge >> White plastic ??? This is simply not real. I want to know what happens to the toxic black goo we saw at the beginning.

    Use protective gears. Cheaper than your worker's hands.

  • 그리고 저거 나오는곳도, 저거 부셔져서 나올때 샵으로 다 퍼올리잖아. 저거 자루에 다시 샵으로 퍼담는건가? 그럼 아예 자루를 밑에 연결해서 들어가게 할수있지 않아? 그럼 퍼올리지 않고 자루 가득차면 자루만 갈면 일이 편하지 않아?
