Wang told NBC that the company is hoping to deliver a product in two to three years that would be a more expensive, durable plastic used for furniture or plastic tools, as opposed to a solution for inexpensive plastic bottles, leaving room for other innovators to step in. To sway investors during a time when the U.S. administration appears unwilling to support green initiatives, Wang sees profitability as a key to success. "If we really want to push all these things forward, the profit is most important," Wang concluded in the article. "We hope with a new technology, all the parties involved in this industry, they can make the profit and then people can build the circular economy with a self-motivation."
