We thought it was finally time we addressed the question we get asked every single day - is it safe to melt plastic at home? In this video, we cover the importance of cleaning and separating plastic types, as well as which plastics you should and shouldn't work with. We also show you the way in which we've tackled this in our workshop, including ventilation, respirators and fume extractors. All with the help of the weirdly familiar-looking, Dr. Plastic!
We've put this video together as a guide using our experience in working directly with recycled plastic over the past 3-4 years. We would always encourage you to do your own research if you are unsure, but we have linked everything we spoke about below for your reference. As with anything, it also comes down to your comfort level. If you don't feel safe in what you are doing then remember there is no such thing as 'too safe'. Open all your windows, get fume extraction sorted and don that respirator!
