The Carbon Blue workshops collect end-of-life plastics that are no longer useful to the community. Then, they reintegrate them into the production cycle by transforming them into recycled and recyclable carbon-neutral sheets for furniture. A 150m2 workshop has the capacity to process up to 30 tons of plastic waste per year, which represents a negative CO2 footprint of 15 tons.
