OFWASTE

OFWASTE

Nachhaltigkeit – das Schlagwort unserer Zeit. Of-Waste verrät schon im Namen, dass wir es hier mit Recycling zu tun haben. Guillaume Favre, Webdesigner seines Zeichens, hat für sich die Leidenschaft entwickelt, aus leeren Shampooflaschen von Hand Schnipsel zu schneiden und diese zu einer neuen Pet-Platte zusammenzuschmelzen. Durch seine mittlerweile grosse Erfahrung im zusammenmischen diverser Pet-Schnipsel unterschiedlicher Grösse entstehen wunderbare neue, rein recycelte Kunststoffplatten, aus denen wir phantasievolle Brillenfronten CNC-fräsen. In Verbindung mit Karbonbügeln entstand eine neuartige Kollektionslinie aus wiederverwerteten Materialien. Die Fassungen duften oftmals sogar noch nach ihren ehemaligen Inhalten, den Shampoos.

Concept

Origin

Guillaume Favre, a trained designer, has an idea. The story begins 5 years ago during his daily train rides to work. The essence of this project is to create a high-end product that combines quality, innovation and know-how. These three conditions make it stand out – the exceptional raw material used to make the fronts of our frames.

Material

The development history of this material was time-consuming. Long research phases, interrupted by setbacks but also crowned by progress, led to the first successful trials. Gradually, a process for recovering and reusing polymers was developed, a solution that proved to be innovative and sustainable. This process makes it possible to preserve the wonderful properties of PET for the construction of the fronts while reducing the collection and production steps to a radius of less than 50 km, which was very important in order to produce ecologically high-quality products.

Development

The aim was to establish a sustainable production chain, and the key was to make it ready for series production. The meeting with eyewear manufacturer Marcus Marienfeld validated the purpose of all the research phases and opened the way to a new type of collaboration. Thanks to his expertise, the first polymer sunglasses were developed. Each frame is unique, 100% handmade in Valais, designed by Guillaume Favre in the heart of the Swiss Alps.
