Tinkerine signs MOU with Ocean Legacy Foundation for the development of Ocean Plastic Waste 3D Printing Solutions
March 9, 2021 - TinkerineTM Studios Ltd. (TSXV: TTD) ("Tinkerine" or the "Company") announces it has entered into an Memorandum of Understanding (โMOUโ) with the Ocean Legacy Foundation (โOLFโ) for the establishment of a working partnership to permit the creation and interchange of information, including scientific, technical and financial collaboration in the area of the use of OLF recycled plastics material in 3D applications and the development of a larger format systems that would utilize OLF plastic materials for larger type structures and products.
The Ocean Legacy Foundation (โOLFโ) is a Canadian based non-profit organization, founded in 2014 with the goal to end ocean plastic pollution. OLF is an internationally recognized organization that has developed a world leading Plastic Pollution Emergency Response program called EPIC. This dynamic approach integrates Education, Policy, Infrastructure development and Cleanup.

The objective of this Agreement defines how Tinkerine and the Ocean Legacy Foundation wish to combine their respective skills, expertise, experience and resources to;
1) Determine the economic viability for the design, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of the products developed for 3D applications using recycled plastic materials provided by OLF;
2) Collaborate in the exploration and development of a large format system that will utilize OLF recycled plastic pellet material in a 3D manufacturing application.
Under this Agreement, TTD shall:
a. Utilize in-house knowledge of Agile Applied Design processes, and 3D printing expertise for the formulation of OLF plastic material in 3D applications.
b. Leverage existing design, 3D intellectual property and team capabilities to fabricate prototypes of said products.
c. Work with OLF to build and design systems that will utilize the proprietary TTD software and management systems in large format systems to turn plastic waste into economically viable products.
OLF shall:
a. Identify and provide the different types of recycled plastic materials and assist in the research of material development.
b. Collaborate with TTD to provide design, engineering and operational assistance including building, testing and validation for the 3D application.
c. Assist in providing material specifications and characteristics on a coordinated global basis for integration into 3D applications.
โOcean Legacy is thrilled to be partnering with TinkerineTM to continue developing pragmatic solutions which can utilize wasted plastic resources collected from ocean and shoreline environments into durable long-lived products,โ expresses Chloé Dubois, President of the Ocean Legacy Foundation, โ3-D printing and the experience of the Tinkerine team provides a unique opportunity which can bring value to much of the marine related plastics entering our natural and landfill environments to further support the development of the plastic circular economy.โ
โWeโre excited to be working with the Ocean Legacy Foundation team on the exploration and development of recycled oceans plastic materials in 3D applications,โ states Eugene Suyu Tinkerineโs CEO, โWith the combination of design-centric processes, our 3D printing expertise, together with Ocean Legacy Foundationโs strong focus and understanding of recycled ocean materials, I believe we can create value for communities and businesses around the world.โ

lthough investors have soured on 3D printing stocks in recent years, the long-term growth prospects remain attractive. According to Wohlers Report 2014, a leading 3D printing insights report, the 3D printing industry is estimated to generate over $21 billion in worldwide revenue by 2020. If true, this growth would represent a more than fourfold increase from the $5.1 billion in revenue the industry generated in 2015.
In the context of falling 3D printing stocks, this growth potential could spell opportunity!
TKSTF LONG!
