The Market
In the developing economies where environmental plastic accumulates fastest, collection is informal, fragmented, and cash-based. Recycling margins are thin. Buyers can't verify what they're paying for.
EU Extended Producer Responsibility, the Philippines' EPR Act, and plastic-neutrality commitments from global brands have converted voluntary demand into structural demand. There's no trusted place to spend it.

The world lacks a scalable, verifiable system to price plastic waste and fund its recovery.
The Solution
PBRC operates the full stack — from the moment plastic is recovered to the moment a global brand reports its impact.
How It Works
Four steps. One platform. Every kilogram traceable from the community recycler to the brand reporting its impact.
Buyers fund recovery.
Business Model
One asset-light platform. Three revenue streams across three customer segments. Enterprise anchors today’s revenue; two larger markets are still in build.
