Project Background
Our clients want to re-create everyday products in a more sustainable and environmentally responsible way, starting with the humble plastic hair comb.
The Process
We assisted in design strategy; considering the lacking of options on the market and opportunities to make a product that is highly practical and sustainable. We collaborated with our sister company DEFY Design as the a local, low-impact recycled plastic manufacturer. We also assisted in establishing Recycling Grams branding strategy; logo development, marketing collateral, brand language and identity.
The Results
100% made out of plastic bottles, 100% recyclable, comb. A solution providing people with the opportunity to make conscious decisions in their purchases. Available in 3 colour themes, each comb possessing its own individual colour variation, no two combs are alike.
