Starting from 20 October, at the Gundam Base Tokyo and in other select stores across Japan, plastic “EcoPla” models made from recycled materials were distributed along with information brochures to educate the public about recycling. About a ton of used looms were collected during the campaign, which lasted about a month.

The Gunpla Recycle Project is a joint project between Bandai Namco Holdings, Bandai Spirits, Bandai Amusement and Bandai Logipal, which aims to use a state-of-the-art chemical recycling technology aimed at reusing plastic Gundam models (otherwise known as Gunpla) in new builds.

On April 1, around 190 facilities managed by Bandai Namco Amusement installed a recycling box in their sales point, precisely to promote the recycling of frames and other plastic waste. The collected materials will be sent to the Bandai Hobby Center in Shizuoka, which manages the production of Gunpla. The beauty of. Is expected to be recycled within a year 10 tons of plastic.

Bandai Namco aims to achieve a 35% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050. The company also aims to implement new energy-saving technologies in all of its entertainment facilities, factories, offices and other operational areas. For the moment it appears that the company’s strategy is working, as demonstrated by the brilliant current results.
