Preparations
R&D enables you to test materials, design products, and explore markets all at once. Hands-on learning sits alongside research and customer feedback, helping you move from ideas to action.
Practical starting points
R&D works best when you start small and practical (testing materials, developing products, and learning from customers) while balancing hands-on work with big-picture thinking.
Equipment & materials
To start recycling and R&D, you’ll need basic tools, space, and plastic—Flipflopi began with simple machines and now uses a mix of DIY and professional equipment to make useful products.
