Sustainable design for maximum impact with minimal footprint.

Environmental sustainability, availability of raw materials and global climate agreements are a major challenge for everyone. Sustainable design is an integral part of our creativity. How do you make the right and fair choices with attention to a green world?

For over forty years, we have been developing surprising and sustainable products that add something. By purposefully investigating and realizing new opportunities, we maximize your success in the market, with the right focus on minimizing your footprint.

Together towards circularity and sustainability

Our team consists of designers, engineers and builders with a strong drive to make the world a better place. We have demonstrable experience and knowledge of the latest trends in sustainability, circular economy, LCAs and energy transition. But we cannot do without practice. To test and optimize our concepts, we use numerous prototypes at an early stage.

Together we shift the focus from a linear (take-make-waste) to a circular (reuse-repair-return) business model. For this we use the right tools and involve all parties needed within the development chain.

Sustainable design requires systems thinking

Developing a sustainable product also means paying attention to the entire system surrounding the product. Each link plays a role in the final footprint and therefore offers opportunities for environmental gain. We think in scenarios, visualize and realize your possibilities.

Together we realize products with a high aesthetic functional quality, which last a long time and can therefore be reused often. The best product solution results in minimal failure, energy consumption and waste.

Decrease

Reducing is a well-known challenge: fewer parts, lighter products, less energy consumption. Smart constructions make repair and reuse easier. Mono material makes recycling easy. All examples of practically applicable solutions that can minimize the footprint of your company and maximize the impact of your company. We would like to explore the possibilities together with you.
