- Eggshell-based ceramics and bioplasticsEggshells, a globally abundant food waste, are increasingly recognized as a sustainable feedstock for innovative materials such as ceramics and bioplastics. Eggshell-derived calcium carbonate serves as a low-carbon alternative to mined limestone in ceramic production. Eggshells are also revolutionizing bioplastics as a biobased filler and biodegradability enhancer.
- Eggshell inlayThe fragile eggshell is inlaid into one of nature’s most durable products, lacquer. Eggshell inlay uses duck eggs that have already hatched. A range of coloration can be achieved. Artisans puzzle out patterns of irregular geometry.
- Eggshell CeramicAtelier LVDW developed a biodegradable but strong material out of the eggshells which can be a sustainable replacement for single use plates. The material can easily be recycled into calcium water, which can be used as a nutrient for lime-loving plants. This project creates an extra “dot” in this materials lifecycle. The studio designs decorative art objects and planters with this material.
- 3D Printing Eggshell BioceramicBioceramic made from eggshell combined with sustainable aggregates such as xanatana gum and water, resulting in a new materiality, which seeks to reduce food waste and generate new opportunities as a building material. This material does not require burning, it hardens at room temperature (20º to 25º C) in a maximum time of 2 to 3 days.
- EggwareEggware is a new ceramic & concrete like material that is made out of calcareous food waste -eggshells and an algae-based biobinder. YLEM meticulously experiments and creates tangibles that are naturally white, lightweight, rigid, powdery, water-absorbent and strong.
- Rebbur TileRebbur Tile is a sustainable surface material developed by combining natural rubber with underutilized resources such as tea leaves, seaweed scraps, eggshells, wood chips, stone powder, and iron powder. It transforms industrial and food-production waste into a functional design material, supporting circular material development while maintaining a warm and tactile quality.
- Atelier Barb Bio SeriesThe Atelier Barb Bio Series comprises a range of products and materials crafted from organic waste and natural binders. These mediums include eggshell waste, non-edible parts of the artichoke plant, rock salt, plant-based dyes, algae, and starch-based binders. The resulting material is both sturdy and durable, making it ideal for creating functional art objects, tableware, wall tiles, furniture, and other surfaces designed for longevity and eventual decomposition.
- Nature SquaredThese materials are a combination of traditional skills with modern technical expertise and precision. The surfaces are divided into several material base collections which consist out of a wide range of patterns, colours and finishes like eggshell, mother of pearl, natural lacquer and more.
- ecologia MarmoThe ecologia Marmo sheet is a 100% carbon neutral, 100% recyclable polyolefin sheet made of PP. The ecologia material is manufactured from post-industrial, scrap polypropylene. It is non-toxic and highly energy efficient during its manufacture. It is available in sheet or roll form in sizes from 0.38mm to 4.8mm thick at 1425mm maximum width and any practical length.
- UnwastedWith 65-100% waste content, the clay and glaze embrace natural variations and a closed-loop system, where broken tiles can be re-circulated. Unwasted redefines ceramics in the built environment, blending sustainability, function, and circular design.
- Ottan MaterialsEach of the materials was produced by upcycling an average of 65-85% organic waste. Ottan materials, which do not contain any colourants or additives, reflect the characteristics of the waste they’re made of.
