Precious Plastic East runs a coastal plastic recycling and manufacturing workshop in Great Yarmouth recycling local waste plastic from businesses, residents and beach cleans.

Set-up in March 2022, Precious Plastic East cleans, shreds and injection moulds the plastic it collects in its all singing, all dancing workshop built using Precious Plastic blueprints. All the plastic used is either post-consumer waste or plastic retrieved from the sea on local beach cleans.

Precious Plastic East is the trading name of Wastesmiths CIC which is a social enterprise and operates for purpose rather than profits. Any surplus funds it generates from trading are reinvested into achieving its aim of reducing the amount of plastic waste that ends up in landfill and the sea.
