Precious Plastic KAUST (PPK) is a 100% volunteer-based community group in KAUST that aims to empower people to drive for sustainable change and to provide them with the necessary tools to do so. We raise awareness about plastic pollution problems, while offering opportunities to recycle the plastic we gather from inside the KAUST community into reusable products.
Location: Averda recyling center, KAUST
Membership: No membership fee.
For enquiries contact us: President - Pim Arora: pim.arora@thekaustschool.org and/or Vice president – Craig Combe: craig.combe@kaust.edu.sa
Trainings – At our workshop space (in the Recycle Center), we offer trainings to use the basic machines needed to recycle the plastic gathered from the community. Once a member has been trained, they are able to access the workshop to create products, including for their own projects.
We offer workshops to create many colorful products made out of 100% plastic from our community. These products encourage members to share creativity in design and offer a community to discuss any projects we want to participate in.
We meet at the Precious Plastic Workshop in the Reuse Center or The KAUST School Design Hub. These places are where our equipment and materials are stored.
At Precious Plastic, we know that real change comes from people like you. We're building a recycling system that thrives on collaboration. We're excited to invite you to our training sessions and volunteer opportunities.
