Clean2Anywhere

A foundation with a remarkable mission. Change is hard, we hear it so often, especially when trying to change our collective habitual behavior in order to move toward sustainable futures. And there is no manual for it, so how? Well experiment a lot I would say and just discover it! That’s why we are going to do something crazy! We are building a ^17th century flute ship entirely out of waste plastic. Simply because it can’t be done. Waste plastic is not strong enough. And that’s exactly why we’re going to do it. And everyone who wants to build with us is welcome. So sustainable and inclusive.

The first shipments for the flute ship have already been offered to us while we do not yet know if we can build the ship. We call that the pleasure of inconvenience! This is how we seek the clean route, because if you keep doing what you always did you will get what you always got.

modular homes made of waste plastic, wood and waste textiles

Through all our experiments, we make the most diverse discoveries and we share them with others. Open innovations that can lead to great spin-offs. But sometimes it takes a lot of guts to bring such a spin-off to life and then we like to work on it ourselves. Simply because we are not afraid to fail.

Simple construction process

How we do that? Well make the building process so simple that it becomes similar to playing with Lego. That requires quite a bit of design and engineering. At first, as a charitable foundation, we did that “old school” with pen and paper. But it soon became clear that we needed to move to a CAD system, but which one?

One of the major forces behind the modular homes is Rein ter Velde, who did know what system to use for it. From his education he had experience with IronCAD. And so it came about that we now have our entire construction process of the homes recorded in the package. For us it is unthinkable to organize it in any other way and we are super happy with how it works.

SAmenwerking with Dynfos

But it doesn’t stop here. We have set the bar high and also want to fully capture and manage the construction of our ships from IronCAD. A challenging task in which we still have a lot to discover. And this is where we discover the organization behind IronCAD. Inspired by our mission, they think along unasked how we can approach and realize this together. All stops are pulled out to make it succeed. A good package is one thing, but to use it effectively, good support is key. And Dynfos provides that. And we quietly have the idea that they find it wonderful and meaningful to participate in our social challenge.
