About The Center for Regenerative Design & Collaboration
The Center for Regenerative Design and Collaboration, CRDC, is a Costa Rican based company that understands a proactive and integrated approach must to be taken in order to harmonize a growing population need with the resulting pressures they put on the environment. It is important they rethink their past and continue to reinvent their future with the management and recovery process of plastic waste as a resource in a growing Circular Economy. CRDC is the result of decades of focus and experience; a multidiscipline and collaborative effort of dedicated people and entities all having a common mandate to use mentorship and good business to promote positive change. Community enrichment is provided through affordable housing initiatives and free classical music instruction for children, environmental enrichment through a volunteer based mangrove reforestation and beach clean-up. Now, following years of investigation, research and prototyping they are ready to introduce the innovative GUA - Costa Rica zero waste packaging process, a product designed and patented by the company’s founder Donald Thomson and now a dedication team of experienced industrial, retail, housing and capital market professionals in New York City and Seattle. GUA is intended to set the bar of "zero waste" to a new level and is the benchmark example of regenerative design and up cycling. The GUA container reconfigures itself from a plastic beverage bottle into a high quality building product which successfully integrates industry, environmental, and community while addressing the growing plastic problem facing their land and marine environments. According to Doug Woodring, founder of Plasticity, “The Global reach, along with the positive, solutions-based approach……has engaged those interested in managing and recovering plastic as a resource; scalable innovations in plastic that save money; use of new materials; designing for sustainability; and solutions for a world where plastic is used, but without its current footprint.” Their Mission is to change the perception of the inefficiency of the recycling process while promoting responsible consumption through the introduction of new ways to address the proliferation of plastic waste and regenerative capabilities. CRDC will work with national and international universities, forward thinking business, governmental entitles, housing and shelter thought leaders and the global investment community to promote a productive cultural, environmental and industrial collaboration.
