We are happy to share the news that the Airbag has been nominated
to the Green Product Awards 2024!
Over 1500 participants from 54 countries applied for the 11th edition of the
Green Product Award. After being reviewed under the aspects of design,
innovation & sustainability, the best submissions were nominated.
The Airbag is one of the nominees in the Interior & Lifestyle!
In most countries in Europe, around 10% of materials are recycled.
It means that 90% of materials are only used once. By identifying waste streams
from industries and utilizing them to create aesthetic or fun objects, we can
increase the circular economy and decrease dependence on virgin materials.
The design of the Airbag is a clear example of a transparent transformation from
a linear to a circular economy. The Airbag is a truly circular product made of
industrial and consumer waste from the automobile and outdoor industries.
The Airbag has gotten a lot of attention internationally, and has been featured
in media such as Vogue, Elle Decor Italia and Frankfurter Allgemeine.
