Red Dot Design Awards Ecopod E1 compact recycler,

The ecopod E1 compact recycler series is the first to focus on making recycling simple and rewarding through eco-efficient products and sustainable reclamation. It is the first ever compact recycler for both aluminium cans and plastic bottles. The unit is relatively small and compact; the materials used are just as recyclable. The design of the series communicates the brand promise to change current recycling methods by making the way goods are returned, reprocessed and, ultimately, reused efficient and sustainable. The resulting design is both clear and functional. The design language avoids being fashionable or trendy.
