A plastic credit is a transferable certificate indicative of the collection of a specified weight (e.g. one kilogram, one metric ton) of plastic waste. This measurement of waste is declared recovered or recycled, by the ownership of said certificate, that would otherwise have ended up in the natural environment.

Plastic credits are always measurable as well as verifiable units. They are a great opportunity for private companies to invest in regional collection and recycling infrastructure of the economy in which they operate.
