Recycling plastic cds into RE-CD
RE-CD is our solution to the global issue of recycling CDs, DVDs, games and software discs. It is a unique, sustainable composite material consisting of 100% waste discs and is 100% recyclable.
Physical Properties
Durable, hard wearing, high hardness and temperature resistant.
Manufacture
Machined using common workshop tools and processes.
Why RE-CD?
RE-CD improves on most current eco materials as it contains no virgin materials or additives, such as resins or epoxies. It is a re-constitution of the original product, via our innovative processing method.
The original character, nostalgia and history of the CDs, is encapsulated into the new material. Each piece has a unique, bespoke aesthetic, with variable bright colours. It has an intriguing visual depth as a result of the light refraction caused by the metal foil, shimmering throughout the material.
Sustainability
Recyclable, repairable, low emissions and re-processable.
Finish
Sanded and polished to either a matt or gloss finish
Unique Processing
Our innovative reprocessing methods encompass circular design systems to ensure efficiency and enhanced sustainability. We aim to ensure the longest possible life cycle for RE-CD and re-use all manufacture off-cuts. We also offer an end of life return service for larger products!
