High-Quality Reuse of Old Senseo Machines
The Philips Senseo Viva Café Eco is composed of 50% recycled plastic. With this product, Philips aimed to demonstrate that it is possible to create beautiful, high-quality products from recycled materials.
However, recycled materials possess different properties compared to new materials. How do you effectively utilize recycled material? What should you be aware of? How do you validate the quality of recycled plastic? In this project, we supported Philips in validating and understanding the application of recycled plastic in product development and production. The knowledge developed through extensive testing and injection molding trials during this project continues to underpin other circular development projects.
Designed from recycling
Process
Combining our comprehensive knowledge of plastics with the ability to create test parts in our Pilot Factory forms the foundation of our design solutions. Developing prototype molds, validating material samples, and translating these into production molds are crucial aspects of our work. We also provide support to manufacturers to ensure a smooth production start-up using recycled plastics.
