- OUR PURPOSE - Undergoing a rebranding process prompted deep reflection on what we wanted GR3N’s purpose to be: in a world struggling with the overabundance of plastic and diminishing resources, we recognize recycling and repurposing waste as vital components of environmental transformation. We are committed to using science as our guiding force to face these challenges, applying our expertise and tools at GR3N as our equipment to navigate the complexities of our current world. 🌍 As a result, we defined our purpose as "Facing the Challenge of a Changing World: Navigating Uncertainty with Science." Another step towards a GR3N-er future. 💚 Come along on our journey! And Keep Pushing Forward. #gr3n #polyester #purpose #rebranding
