To support circular economy principles, we produce items with 3D printers, mostly on demand, to prevent more waste that would end up in landfills since there is no surplus in the stock. 3D printing (AKA additive manufacturing) produces almost no waste and requires much less energy than conventional manufacturing methods. Apart from the ability to drastically reduce carbon footprint, no toxicity is released in the production process. PLA scraps and prototypes can also be recycled, to close the loop of resource production.
"Work In Progress" ✨ — Since PLA is only compostable in specific conditions at industrial facilities, we aim to turn PLA scraps into products soon. We never throw away our scraps/failed parts and look to gather the PLA waste from elsewhere.
“Recycled PLA (rPLA) Is an Ideal Material” ♻️ — We proudly support CATUP and PLAPLUS, the Thai companies that upcycle PLA waste from single-use cups into recycled PLA filament (rPLA) for 3D printing. We strive to introduce this circular material to all clients and brands we work with so that we can solely use rPLA in the near future to minimise the use of virgin materials.
Fungal filaments known as “Mycelium”, the root-like structure of mushrooms, offer numerous advantages over traditional petroleum-based materials. These include extremely minimal carbon footprint and energy use, waste reduction in landfills, and 100% home and marine compostable. The mycelium compost (spent mushroom compost) is high in organic matter making it desirable for use as a soil amendment/conditioner. This natural technology supports a regenerative system where end-of-life products can be repeatedly broken down and recycled into new goods.
“Growing Products Ourselves!” ✊🏼 — Mycelium-based composites can be grown by using organic waste from various industries, especially agriculture, as a substrate. By combining byproducts like sawdust, straw, and coffee grounds with mushroom spawn — the resulting mycelium composite can be used in packaging and interior products such as lampshades, temporary bricks, wall decors, and acoustic panels. The mycelium-based material is fire retardant, water repellent, lightweight, and has competent insulation properties.
🇹🇭 Spirulina Society ผลิตของตกแต่งบ้านที่เป็นมิตรต่อสิ่งแวดล้อมโดยใช้วัสดุที่ย่อยสลายได้โดยไม่มีสารพิษปนเปื้อนและเป็นวัสดุที่สามารถนำมาหมุนเวียนใหม่ได้ ซึ่งคือ PLA (Polylactic Acid) พลาสติกที่ทำมาจากพืช เช่น ข้าวโพด มันสำปะหลัง และ อ้อย
งานทุกชิ้นจัดทำขึ้นเพื่อสนับสนุนหลักการของเศรษฐกิจหมุนเวียน (Circular Economy) โดยใช้เครื่องพิมพ์สามมิติ (3D Printer) ซึ่งเป็นวิธีการผลิตที่ใช้พลังงานต่ำกว่าการผลิตแบบ Conventional (Low Carbon Footprint) อีกทั้งยังไม่ก่อให้เกิดสารพิษในขั้นตอนการผลิต และ แทบไม่มีเศษเหลือของวัสดุตกค้าง เนื่องจากเป็นการผลิตแบบเพิ่มเนื้อวัสดุ (Additive Manufacturing) ซึ่งเศษเหลือของวัสดุนั้นก็ยังสามารถนำกลับมารีไซเคิลเป็นชิ้นงานใหม่ได้อีกด้วย

🌽 We made all products from PLA, a renewable and degradable vegetable-based plastic material, which commonly uses cornstarch as a raw material.
💧 PLA is fully waterproof. It only degrades in specific conditions: composting with moisture and particular enzymes at high temperature 60-65 °C (140-150 °F).
⚠️ PLEASE DO NOT USE HOT WATER WITH ANY PRODUCTS AS PLA WARPS AT 60-65 °C (140-150 °F).
