Summary

We all know that ocean plastic can take hundreds of years to decompose and even harm marine life. But what if there was a way to give plastic waste a new value? That's what the new mini-exhibition at the Material Resource Centre all about.

In collaboration with #tide ocean material® that collects ocean-bound plastic and turns it into new products, the exhibition explores the potential of plastic waste as a valuable resource. See how the waste is being transformed into various designs, from watches to furniture, automotive parts to apparel, consumer electronics to carpets, sports floors, and even construction. They provide ocean-bound plastic granules, yarn, and filament to brands and companies throughout all industries. The possibilities are endless with #tide. Come check it out!

Date | 25 Sep 2023 – 18 Dec 2023
