Tag: 
Technocycle

Material made with 0.4 mm rubber powder 100% recycled from ELT mixed with moss.

"Rethinking Materials" is the slogan that distinguished a project promoted by Ecopneus and developed in collaboration with Matrec srl, which saw the development of 15 new materials derived 100% from recycled rubber from End of Life Tires (ELTs) mixed or polylaminated with other natural and synthetic materials. The ELTs are collected and processed by the same company to give life to new aesthetically renewed, sound-absorbing and anti-vibration materials for different applications, from street furniture, to objects, to flooring.
