You diligently recycle all your plastic grocery bags and the annoying shrink wrap around all your kid’s new toys. Ever wonder what happens to it? In a perfect circular solution, all that plastic film would be cleaned, shredded, melted, squeezed through an extruder, and transformed into tiny pellets that go on to another life as a new product. And the largest producer of those tiny beads, called post-consumer resin (PCR) pellets, is here in Waller, Texas. NaturaPCR hired Goree Architects to lead the design of a massive new processing facility that will allow NaturaPCR to continue scaling its business. Goree worked with PRISM to produce aerial drone superimposed renderings of the new configuration of the site with the building included.
