Abstract
En este documento se presenta el desarrollo de un paquete tecnológico transferible, diseñado para la revalorización de envases plásticos posconsumo con un enfoque especial en micro emprendedoras. El objetivo principal es fomentar la economía circular, promoviendo prácticas sostenibles que permitan transformar residuos plásticos en productos útiles, accesibles y de valor agregado.
El paquete tecnológico desarrollado incluye guías prácticas, ejemplos de productos y herramientas para la implementación de técnicas de bajo costo, como la termofusión. Estas técnicas permiten transformar plásticos reciclables como PET, HDPE, PP y otros materiales domésticos en productos innovadores y funcionales. Algunos de los prototipos destacados en este proyecto incluyen aros, bolsos y posavasos, seleccionados por su alta demanda en el mercado y su viabilidad técnica y económica.
Estos productos pueden fabricarse utilizando herramientas comunes, como planchas y moldes, lo que facilita su adopción incluso por emprendedores con recursos limitados. Este trabajo combina conocimientos técnicos, sostenibilidad y diseño accesible para ofrecer una herramienta práctica que empodera a las micro emprendedoras, brindándoles la capacidad de transformar desechos en recursos valiosos.
This document presents the development of a transferable technological package designed for the revalorization of post-consumer plastic containers, with a special focus on micro-entrepreneurs. The main objective is to promote the circular economy by encouraging sustainable practices that transform plastic waste into useful, accessible, and value-added products. The technological package includes practical guides, product examples, and tools for implementing low-cost techniques, such as thermofusion. These techniques enable the transformation of recyclable plastics such as PET, HDPE, PP, and other household materials into innovative and functional products. Highlighted prototypes from this project include earrings, bags, and coasters, selected for their high market demand and technical and economic feasibility. These products can be manufactured using common tools like irons and molds, making them accessible even to entrepreneurs with limited resources. This work combines technical knowledge, sustainability, and accessible design to provide a practical tool that empowers micro-female, equipping them with the capability to transform waste into valuable resources.
