This is not plastic. This is Afterpoly. Our first working prototype — made on real production equipment, not a lab cast. The goal: packaging that behaves like normal material during use, and breaks down in natural home environments after disposal.

Until we build alternatives that match performance match cost and fit existing systems Nothing changes at scale.

Recycling isn’t broken. The economics are. I’ve worked in plastic recycling. Here’s what actually happens behind the scenes 👇

9 months of trying to raise for my startup, getting more no’s than replies, and still not giving up because I’ve realized it’s not about being fundable early, it’s about staying alive long enough for the world to catch up to what you’re building.

Working prototypes + 4 LOIs from brands  capital is the only bottleneck to pilot & scale I’ve attached the pitch deck for context. Worth a quick look?

My name’s Aadil.  I know your time is valuable, so I’ll keep this to three bullets: • Building Afterpoly currently pre-incorporation biodegradable packaging  that runs on existing machines no retooling • 4 years in plastic waste & polymer trade, 2 years deep in formulation

@gitcoin Is there any grant or ecosystem funding for climate/material innovation? Building home-biodegradable packaging to replace plastic at the manufacturing level. Would love to learn if the ecosystem supports projects like this.

⚠️ PSA / Scam Alert Scammers are targeting Gitcoin community members via DM on Telegram, LinkedIn, and potentially other platforms. ❗ Message TLDR: They reference a real wallet address associated with previous Gitcoin Grants distribution and claim that's how they found your wallet, they claim that your wallet holds tokens on a sunsetting chain that need to be recovered, and they offer to "help" for a % fee. 🙅🏻‍♀️ If you receive a message like this: → Do not respond → Do not click any links → Do not share seed phrases → Do not connect your wallet → Do not sign transactions 📣 Gitcoin will never DM you offering to recover funds, and we will never contract others to recover funds on anyone's behalf. These scammers might be capitalizing on the recent announcement of zkSync Lite deprecation. If you donated through early Gitcoin Grants on zkSync Lite and want to check whether you have funds to withdraw, please follow official instructions from @0xcyp. 👍 X is our official announcements channel. Always verify info here first. 👍 Telegram is our secondary updates channel. Follow along via the official link in the footer at gitcoin.co. 👍 All official Gitcoin emails are sent from an @ gitcoin.co address.
