Alphapura takes to GoFundMe after showing proof of concept with a prototype video that turns ocean trash into sculptures, furniture, and communications accessories, in a 6 minute video. A must see, a must fund, and a must have.
Since the first patent in 2014, interest in Alphapura's "recycling manufacturing" technological platform has gone global and viral, and with good reason, as this literally is one of those products capable of changing the world in a significant manner.
Watch the video at http://www.alphapura.com, as the ARMS prototype transforms salvaged ocean garbage or plastic recyclables into furniture, sculptures, and communications equipment in a six minute video, a must see, and a new alternative to acquiring much cheaper, great quality products, and faster than ordering online or driving to the store, so better overall. A common sense, up-and-coming, yet under-funded, global solution that needs your help to get to the next step.
Imagine once this scales up to metals, glass, and rock, they'll be able to print and mill cities, bases, houses, vessels, furniture, art, electronics, nearly everything, but for now, capable of turning home and office plastics into a million different products.
