Recycled Plastic Design

About this material

ekko Products is a Thailand-based manufacturer developing furniture, panels and accessories made from recycled plastic bottle caps (HDPE). The company originated from a drinking water manufacturing business and was established to address the plastic waste generated through beverage production.

The material used in ekko products is derived primarily from post-consumer and post-industrial plastic caps. These are cleaned, processed and transformed into solid panels and components, resulting in surfaces characterised by visible colour fragments from the original caps. The process retains the material’s durability while giving it a distinctive, terrazzo-like appearance.

The recycled plastic material is used in a range of applications including stools, bar seating, panels and decorative objects. The products combine handcrafted finishing with industrial processing, positioning the material within interior design and furniture contexts.

By reprocessing plastic waste into long-life design objects, ekko Products aims to extend the lifecycle of plastic and promote responsible material management within a circular production framework.
