re•born. where nothing is left behind.

In our world of self-centered societies, we often forget about how much we contribute to growing mountains of wasted items by buying another product that might be interesting or useful, but is rarely a real necessity. There is an incredibly wide offer of baby accessories which contribute to a huge accumulation of discarded baby products that are mostly made of hard plastic or mixed synthetic materials. On the other hand, why wouldn’t we use a potential waste as a new primary source? re•born is a collection of completely biodegradable baby accessories made out of new bio material nuxit® from local organic waste: walnut shells. Simple, low environmental impact processes using injection moulding offer a wide range of different forms such as lupi, gea, muggy. re•born is a collection of short lifespan products that are generally used only for a few years during the childhood period but can later be discarded guilt free, or simply – planted, providing nutrients for the soil.
