about the materials we selected:
A STRONG, FLEXIBLE & FAST-GROWING PLANT. THE FASTEST GROWING TYPE CAN REACH 100CM IN 24HRS. ONCE CUT, IT WILL GROW BACK. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PLANT SEEDS AGAIN. IT PRODUCES MORE OXYGEN THAN TREES!
PORTUGAL PRODUCES 55% OF THE WORLD PRODUCTION. IT IS HARVESTED FROM THE TRUNK OF THE CORK OAK WITHOUT DAMAGING THE TREE. IT IS SIMILAR TO SHEARING WOOL OFF A SHEEP. CORK OAKS ARE PRODUCTIVE FOR 150 YEARS.
EVERY TON OF RECYCLED GLASS MADE INTO NEW ITEMS SAVES 315KG OF CARBON DIOXIDE FROM BEING RELEASED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. GLASS IS INFINITELY RECYCLABLE.
COMES FROM THE FLAX PLANT AND HAS BEEN AROUND FOR MORE THAN 2000 YEARS. IT IS 30% STRONGER THAN COTTON AND LESS WATER AND CHEMICALS ARE NEEDED FOR THE CULTIVATION.
WASTE CAR TIRES ARE NO LONGER SUITABLE FOR THE USE ON VEHICLES. THEY ARE NOT BIODEGRADABLE. WE HAVE TO BE CREATIVE IN WAYS TO REUSE AND RECYCLE THEM. SO WE TURNED THEM INTO COOL PENDANTS!
THE VEGETABLE FIBERS ARE COLLECTED FROM THE BAST OF THE JUTE PLANT: CORCHORUS. THE PLANT IS GROWN FROM SEED AND HARVESTED WITHIN 4-6 MONTHS. THE LONG FIBERS ARE SPUN INTO COARSE, STRONG THREADS.
