In this episode, we’re joined by Rudolf Leue of Recycling Fabrik. Brought to you by PCBWay. Check them out and support the channel at https://jle.vi/pcbwayIn this episode, we’ll interview Rudolf, co-founder of the Recycling Fabrik in Germany. The intention of he and his teammates is to save resources before getting into incineration and build awareness of recycling and recycled / sustainable materials. The idea started in the beginning of Corona. There was a gap of medical equipment, they printed on 3D printers. Due to the Corona situation they had just 50% of normal work and a lot of time. The Maker-vs-Virus community had the problem of waste and they were kidding: let's recycle this stuff. He started in his kitchen and living room, sorting plastic waste and melting it to test the possibilities. From there, Recycling Fabrik has grown to recycle literally tons and tons of 3D printer waste, putting out beautiful new 3D printing filament that people can buy on a points system.Throughout this conversation, we’ll discuss that process, how it works, and the pro’s and cons. Plus, how you can support their work. If you’re interested in both 3D printing and protecting the environment, you’re going to love it - so tune in live to ask questions!?
