3 tons of caps per year
Design of a furniture panel for a medical facility from ground syringe caps.
We are currently doing research work on several extremely promising projects. These are projects backed by analyses of our clients’ trash. We study what they throw away in the process of their service, production, and then we do a case study. We test, dry, crush, grind – almost like with the cabanos of a well-known company on ” T “.
The question : ” why all this?” after all, there are ready-made solutions/meals on the market. You can just buy, apply and forget.
But as a result of such analysis, we often come to a turning point – to some small thing that, when thrown into the trash, does not even make a whimper, as if it were already invisible. And suddenly it becomes the hero, a survivor in an ocean of waste. This hero in the ING bank was the bottom of a lampshade, in the design of a counter for Pepsico Poland it was a bottle cap, in the design of the Diagnostics collection point network – syringe caps. Our study made princesses, queens of the ball, out of these unnoticeable garbage cinderellas. ( Not to be confused with “queens of life” ).
These wastes have entered all in white in turbo design into the living room and whisper in the ear of every customer a story…. whose finale he can touch, smell, see, experience. This process also has a common denominator in different industries – it is the effect of scale. No one expected it. Because fish and trash have no voice 馃檪 Everyone is re-counting their equations : ” If a nurse draws a patient’s blood at a single point of collection, she uses, together with vaccines, 2 syringes on average per patient.
Patients are admitted every 7 minutes from 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., since the operator has 1,800 collection points in Poland – how many caps per day are thrown into the red medical waste bin for incineration?”
equation with one unknown 馃檪
The task from the eighth grade exam entrepreneurs solve by clenching their lips, pointing their tongues, insulting the cost, time, indignant that it is still crap and not ecology….
And suddenly …. Boom – equals – and there is a result.
Big eyes we always have on both sides of the table – and the Migaloo home team and the customer – the more sensitive ones even wet already a little because it scares us a little, a little over. Because suddenly some insignificant paper, cap, nut, poster…. spoke.
Then Migaloo home takes the plunge and makes it into a piece of furniture, a plate, a reception desk, a logo for a trade show. And that is eco design according to Migaloo home.
