A process of circular economy never seen before.<\/em><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">POPSICASE is a start-up company located in Barcelona that creates phone cases with two fundamental characteristics: its 100% recycled raw material from waste such as disused fishing nets and aluminum scrap, and it\u2019s worldwide patented folding handle system. )<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Determined to implement a sustainable economic model by eliminating waste and the continuous use of resources, POPSICASE is launching POPCYCLING, a call to action that consists of encouraging the recycling of their own used covers to completely reuse their material and make new POPSICASE, showing that a system of production and consumption based on the circular economy is possible and setting a precedent in the responsible use of plastics.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Fishing nets as a raw material for manufacturing objects<\/h3>\n<p>Fishing nets are constantly being renewed. Until very recently these nets, mostly made of nylon, were thrown into garbage containers and treated as waste, increasing the pollution of our soils and seas. Now, however, these nets are collected in ports on the Catalan coast and are washed, classified, cut up, melted and converted into a resistant material, a 100% recycled polymer that we have named NET VIVA.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"widget2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xrtKHbG9d5A?enablejsapi=1&amp;origin=https:%2F%2Fwww.popsicase.com\" width=\"600\" height=\"390\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3>POPCYCLING or shredding the old cover to make a new one without generating waste<\/h3>\n<p>But the process doesn\u2019t end here. The NET VIVA material, like many other plastics, does not degrade with use and can be reused as a raw material for other uses. Mar\u00eda Jos\u00e9 Pedragosa, co-founder of the startup comments: \u201cWe saw that there were people who bought a POPSICASE for another model of phone, which meant that they had to throw away the previous one. We researched and verified that it was entirely possible to reuse the material of the used cases by mixing it at a percentage of 20% with the \u201cvirgin\u201d polyamide already coming from fishing nets. So we offered our \u201cPopsilovers\u201d a 25% discount on new POPSICASE if they sent us their old cover by mail. Our surprise has been that people have responded very well because we have already received more than 100 in a month. \u00a0The company\u2019s objective is to be an example in this type of process and to demonstrate that companies can promote the production and responsible use of plastics.
