Blue Pacifico shelf in recycled plastic - 60x20cm

Our aim is to demonstrate that it is possible to design objects in recycled plastic that combine beauty and timeless style as well as being long-lasting. The challenge we faced was to go beyond mere recycling and to create extraordinary items that make us completely forget the previous use of the plastic from which they are made!

The board of this shelf unit is made from PET plastic packaging. Its translucent blue is sprinkled with flecks of colours that bring to mind fragile ocean coral! The subtle shades of this original material are brought out by the light passing through it!

The point of this collection was to radically change the initial lifespan of the raw material. To move from a product used for an extremely short, ephemeral period of time (yoghurt pots or packaging) to a worthwhile, solid item! The tables and shelf units in our collection are long-lasting and have been designed to be useful for several generations. It’s a continuous cycle: we transform existing material, which itself can be further recycled when it is no longer useful!

The tabletops of the collection are manufactured using an innovative process. The plastic waste collected is reduced to chippings and then pressed (without any binding agent) so as to form a board. They are specifically designed to fit on to table legs or our wall BRACKETS! The resulting articles are innovative and futuristic items of furniture!
