Project: NAJ DESIGN X BOOMPLASTIC
Masuria is a minimalist bench for public spaces, made of unusual waste – polypropylene binder twines contaminated with organic reed waste.
The concept was born from the need to use waste from polypropylene binder twines, which are used by a family company producing reed mats (Phragmates australis). Masuria solves the problem of post-production waste that is no longer accepted for recycling due to organic fragments included in it.
By using them to produce plastic sheets, we create new value by changing local perceptions of waste: from polluting waste to a useful resource. The second life we give plastic can lead to another one, because all design elements are recyclable.
The Masuria bench made of plastic waste collected at Naturalex in Masuria was created by Dorota Balewicz and Marta Orszt in cooperation with Adam Krzemiński from Boomplastic.
The project was presented and received a distinction at the exhibition of the finalists of the Guiltless Plastic Rossana Orlandi 2021 competition in Milan and Doha, Qatar.
The “Great Blue” panel, made from HDPE regranulates sourced from post-consumer waste, has been designed so that its blue hue isn’t overly intense. We used semi-transparent regranulate and embedded crushed blue caps to achieve a sense of blue depth.
There is a unique conference table at the CANAL+ Polska headquarters. Unique because it is made of a unique countertop made of Boomplastic boards! To make it, we used grinding from packaging and grinding from colorful caps.
A variety of Boomplastic coffee tables made of different plastic sheets. Entirely made of recycled plastic or with other materials. You can choose a ready-made project, or pick your own table legs and connect them with Boomplastic table top.
