CRDC Global

Structuring of plastic credit projects (Costa Rica, Guatemala and South Africa).

As part of a pioneering global collaboration, EcoCircle Global has joined forces with CRDC Recover and CRDC Materials to develop and implement an innovative plastic crediting program through the PCX PPRS Standard. This initiative connects verified plastic recovery efforts directly with industry stakeholders seeking to make a real, verifiable environmental impact. Working alongside CRDC, EcoCircle helps drive support for high-impact projects—such as beach and river plastic collection, The Bag That Builds initiative, the REAP education program, and sustainable housing solutions in partnership with Habitat for Humanity. Together, we are expanding a transparent and credible plastic crediting ecosystem while driving circular solutions that generate tangible social and environmental benefits for communities around the world.

Social and Environmental Benefits in Practice – Costa Rica

The Bag That Builds

It encourages citizen collection of plastics, which are transformed into construction materials, empowering communities and reducing pollution.

REAP (Resilient Environmental Action Program)

Educational initiative that promotes environmental awareness and local engagement, especially among young people.

Partnership with Habitat for Humanity

Plastic credits finance affordable housing and community projects using circular materials.

River Barriers

Installation of buoys that prevent plastics from reaching rivers, capturing waste before it becomes marine pollution.
