So Plast!c is a series of products made from recycled or upcycled plastic waste. It is inspired by the ubiquitous and highly versatile material, celebrated as “the material of a thousand uses” when it was first invented in the early 1900s, associated with styles that were cheap, filmsy or fake in the 60s, and today, viewed as a major pollutant and threat to our environment. So Plast!c harnesses the potential of plastic waste to exist as permanent pieces of design art for homes and commercial spaces instead of being discarded into landfills.
So Plast!c small tables are made from recycled plastic waste. Recyclable plastics from food and drink packaging are collected, sorted, cleaned, and processed into useable raw material for the production of eco-polymer sheets that can be used to make new products.
Each table is made from approximately 6kg of waste, which is 2,000 bottle caps!
