MUTAN PROJECT - March 30th, 2017 Mutan Project’s aim is to reduce the amount of plastic waste in the planet helping social organizations and increasing sustainable development. To achieve that goal they make products using grinding plastic (polypropylene, high and low density polyethylene) and adding value to this material through design. They focus on the technology that lies behind the processing of plastic and are always thinking of new ways to implement simple transformation processes with low investment but with the best quality results in the final products. At the moment Mutan works alongside Garrahan Foundation using as raw material the bottle plastic caps collected by the Argentinian population as part of an initiative to collaborate with the children’s hospital. The Garrahan Foundation has collected 2.158.800.000 plastic caps so far. Which means more than 5 thousand tonnes of recycled plastic. In May 2016, Mutan Project presented their lamps at Puro Diseño Design Fair -Buenos Aires, Argentina-, winning the first prize in the ECO category. Up to now, they have used about 500kg of plastic waste to make this beautiful and high quality products. Web: www.mutan.com.ar E-mail: [email protected]
