polimeer x Rochdale
Ons verhaal – our story
When Rochdale approached us for a custom commission we quickly realized that we could merge their need of signage for buildings with a social intervention to raise awareness on plastic waste. With a communication campaign designed to highlight the resourcefulness of plastic , we asked the neighbourhood to gather a large number of plastic bags, that kind of plastic that everyday we bring home from retailers or grocery stores.
The project aims to inform the citizens of the various kinds of recyclable and not-recyclable plastics, how to identify them and dispose of them accordingly so that more recycling can be stimulated in the study areas. In fact each residential building included in the project collected and donated plastic to Polimeer to produce a personalised sign for their community. With this call to action the Amsterdammers residents become the essential starting point of the project ,without their support and collaboration the project could never be successful. Each sign of this project is made with post-consumer plastic, they are unique in patterns and colour palette. 140 signs are hanging today around Amsterdam. Can you spot one ?
Polimeer x ImpactHub AMS
Blue water
Can an office kitchen become the melting pot for a community of social entrepreneurs , if yes , what kind of conversation they would have ? and how can we stimulate these conversations?Â
When Impact Hub Amsterdam decided to add a water unit to the Plaza , this space was designed by keeping in mind that it should be social , professional but comfortable. It felt natural then the choice to create a seamless movable unit that is fully absorbed in the original design of the kitchen. Merkk Water supplied the cooling and filtering system along with the tap. Polimeer designed and manufactured the unit featuring a tasseleted it with panels of Blue Marine Poli-marble®. This is the place where Impact Hub members chat over coffee and a fuzzy glass of water with no guilt.
polimeer x Ace&Tate
Keyhangers
Many products are transported across countries to be sold on the high-streets stores. For small-medium companies this means that each new season large amounts of plastic packaging is used to protect items during shipments before ending on the shelfs or to your doorstep. In this collaboration Polimeer and Ace&Tate accumulated and gathered all the eyewear post-commercial plastic waste from shops and HQ in Amsterdam, rescuing more than 20 kg of plastic destined to be burned.Â
The is used for the making of 1-500 custom keychains featuring the Ace&Tate logo. The plastic was coloured using post-consumer plastic inked they are given away to their most loyal customers
