Plastindia’s ‘largest T-shirt’ enters Guinness World Records

Areal view of the world’s largest t-shirt made of 100% recycled plastic waste

On 5 January 2018, Plastindia Foundation unveiled a giant, world-record beating T-shirt of the size 97.5 x 70.08 meters made from recycled plastic at an event held at the Goregaon Sports Club in Mumbai. Plastindia Foundation took up this initiative to create awareness among the masses on the need to manage plastics waste so that it is recycled more efficiently. The T-shirt eventually enters the Guinness World Records.

The fabric from the T-Shirt will be later used to create 10,000 T-shirts and distributed free to children from impoverished backgrounds.

KK Seksaria, president, Plastindia Foundation, said, “Plastics waste can be managed effectively with understanding segregation at source and making citizens more conscious towards littering and mixing waste. If waste is segregated and disposed correctly it will help plastics waste to be recycled more effectively and we can create many things from recycled plastics waste. To change people’s behavior towards waste management and segregation is not going to be easy, but steps like these could go a long way in building empathy and belief that there are ways to bring about environmental change if every citizen understands and appreciates his civic responsibility.”
