Plasticiet
Plastic is the new gold! So instead of wasting it, let's turn it into something beautiful, which is exactly what they love to do at Plasticiet.
Following extensive prototyping, they have found a way to process large volumes of plastic waste and transform it into a sustainable material. With a visual language inspired by the beauty of natural stone. Plasticiet creates building blocks that can be used for a wide range of applications.
Plasticiet was founded in 2018 by Marten van Middelkoop and Joost Dingemans, two Rotterdam based designers with a passion for sustainable material development.
