"We are a budding start-up endeavouring to promote the use of recycled plastic. We intend to bring it to the forefront from the background and use it majorly in the mainstream /top-of-the-line items. Of all the plastic produced till now, 9% has been lost (by incineration or decomposed completely) but the remaining 91% is where our opportunity lies. This is where minus comes into action: to rescue all the short-lived plastic and ensure that they don’t end in a landfill or any water body.
Minus Degre is incorporated in May 2021, and it's been a roller coaster journey for us, but we also had times of joy. Minus Degre is a mission-driven organization that is determined to contribute to solving the problem of the 9.46 million tons of plastic waste that are generated annually in India. Plastic waste pollutes our oceans & land and affects our food chain and environment; we want to address one of humanity’s greatest challenges. Our goal is to incorporate recycled plastic into the circular economy in as many states as possible. With our help, what was once considered waste can now become a beautiful part of our lives.
