The limited Deluxe edition of Dice Miner included a plastic mountain made of virgin PVC. We have had many requests for the plastic mountain as an upgrade to the standard game’s punchboard mountain, but we were determined not to use PVC again because of its environmental impact. We brought our injection mold to the United States and found a local manufacturer willing to experiment with 100% recycled materials.
Our new mountain upgrade is now complete. It is durable high density polyethylene, 2.5mm thick. We collect and shred plastic from our community on the shores of Lake Superior – material that can be recycled, but was otherwise going to landfill because it is in a shape (such as small aspirin bottles) that the local recycling system does not accept.
