Design for recycling and recycled content standards and certification are two elements that will be incorporated into circular activities as it moves forward. Kim Markel’s popsicle-colored recycled chair sand accessories stand out in into any room. The collection consists of chairs, side tables, wall and handheld mirrors, and vases made using reclaimed plastic pellets bonded together with resin. Markel says that the ratio of recycled material to resin is currently about 70%, and will increase it soon. “I’ve always made things, but I studied public policy, specifically relating to the environment, so I’m really interested in making things in the most responsible way” says Markel. “If I’m going to put new things into the world, I want them to be made of mostly reused material.” The plastics that make up the pellets come from a variety of sources from beverage bottles to lunch trays to eye glasses. The unique makeup of the pellet/resin mixture gives the finished pieces a perfectly imperfect, organic form.
