Bio ecological PET for interiors of cars

he new plastic label will be introduced in early 2011 on the new compact hybrid of Japanese brand, but plans call for a rapid expansion of the range of Toyota models intended to use these materials.

As revealed by the Japanese giant, by the end of 2011 will introduce a new model on which the amount of bio-PET will be even 80% of the interior plastics. The bio-PET will use Toyota will be able to provide better resistance to heat and aging, and compared to conventional bioplastics than PET derived from crude oil and costs comparable to those of normal PET, due to the large volumes production.



The bio-PET also provides a lower level of harmful emissions than petroleum plastics, making it a further reduction of CO2 emissions throughout the life cycle of the car and at the same time a contribution to the cutting of industrial requirements oil. Here we have some Lexus CT 200h picture which using bio PET body design.

Ecologische spiegel

Ecological mirror! Mirox 3G is has made a significant progress in terms of quality, ecology, resistance, handling and performance. These ecological mirrors entail no copper, no formaldehyde,ROHS compliant (< 0,1% lead) and 70% less solvants than the previous generation mirrors. The mirrors are 10 times more resistant to corrosion and 3 times more resistant to scratches in accordance with standards.
Available in a SAFE/SAFE+ safety version and in antibacterial glass AB.

AGC holds the exclusive patent for the manufacturing process of Mirox 3G.

Hemp chair

Traditionally, monobloc stackable chairs have been developed with reinforced plastics.

'Hemp chair' by berlin-based designer/architect Werner Aisslinger is the first monochair designed with a new technology in which natural fibers like hemp that are moulded under heat with a special ecological glue resulting in a sustainable composite material.

A complete structure done in a thin layer of material is one of the most complicated ways to design and engineer a chair. Aisslinger's design which features soft curves, along with a horizontal and vertical ring structure, is a new approach to this complex seating typology.

The difficulty in working with ecological materials is the relation of ingredients compared to the stability of the lifecycle and pricing of the components. The technology that has been utilized for the 'Hemp chair' allows one to use 100 percent natural fibres in combination with a water-based glue that contains no phenols or formaldehyd. This process enables low cost mass production for 3D objects with a high stability and low specific weight.

The 'Hemp chair' shows at milan design week 2011 at ventura lambrate in the exhibition 'poetry happens' curated by werner aisslinger, tim brauns and fabien dumas. It stands to be a display of archetypal prototyped objects or installations with a narrative design quality whether it be through the 'poetry of making', 'poetry of collages', 'poetry of prototyping', 'poetry of spaces and installations' or the 'poetry of sustainability. Here, designers, architects and artists give their personal approach and interpretation of their work in relation to poetry.
