#madeofmoney

#madeofmoney is an initiative for issuing authorities, transforming end-of-life polymer banknotes into stylish, sustainable products that promote local innovation, support sustainable activities, and reduce plastic waste.

We aim to highlight how simple it is to recycle polymer banknotes, using the appeal of these unique items to generate support for local recycling efforts and social enterprises that address plastic waste.

Supporting small scale community recycling projects creates a channel to process small volumes of polymer banknote waste in the future whilst supporting local economies.

#madeofmoney is built on the idea that people care about cash.

The unique recycling capabilities offered by polymer banknotes is a way to engage with Millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha, fostering enthusiasm and awareness around tackling plastic waste and changing attitudes for the future.

We specialise in creating tailored programmes for polymer banknote issuers, helping them transform polymer waste into impactful, purpose-driven projects that are run by local businesses and communities.

Our mission is to connect issuing authorities, recyclers, and educational organisations and establish local recycling programmes around the world to create stylish, desirable and useful items whilst tackling plastic waste.

Over time, #madeofmoney will link with other sustainability programmes, collaborating to change attitudes towards plastic use and recycling.

Plastic waste is a challenge that affects us all. While we may not be responsible for every piece of litter, we can all play a role in tackling the issue.

By initiating sustainable activities, issuing authorities can engage with and support their communities, address waste, and lay the foundations for future change.

Turning currency into change

#madeofmoney will provide practical support to any issuing authority, or polymer banknote related business to help establish successful local recycling programmes that address the needs of the issuing authority and tackle plastic waste.

For large volume waste management needs, different approaches may be required. #madeofmoney products can be used to demonstrate the processability and appeal of owning a product made from recycled polymer banknotes.

We want everyone to benefit by collaborating to create practical and resilient solutions that address the needs of issuing authorities and their communities.
