MATERIAL
post-industrial recycled thermoplastic technopolymer obtained from Illy coffee
pods
A new major partnership with the Illy Group supplements the unwavering
research conducted by Kartell to develop innovative materials and promote
sustainable production.
For the first time ever, post industrial waste coffee pods are being used to
regenerate material, which is ground into a granule-like consistency to give rise
to the second raw material, giving the material a new lease on life so it can be
injected into a Kartell mould to produce a designer product.
The partnership with Illy does not stop with the mere supply of recycled
material, but it embraces a new way of managing the circular economy process
between two excellences. The quality of a consumer industrial product leads to
an industrial project which generates beauty and is in itself based on quality.
It took almost two years of work to achieve the quality standard and the
necessary mechanics to produce a chair from waste coffee pods. The symbol of
this project is a chair, whose name brings to mind the subject of experimentation
on recycled material. Re-Chair is the latest creation by Antonio Citterio for
Kartell made from recycled material and now the special ambassador of project
powered Illy caffè.
