WOW of the Week - Recovered Waste Plastic Awards

Problem: Even with robust recycling and material recovery systems, most plastics do not get recycled.

Solution: Vancouver artist collaborative PECO is finding new uses for hard to recycle plastics. Their revolutionary PlastEco material can be milled like acrylic. It is made from recovered waste plastic bags and fishing nets.

Our Medori awards combine this unique PlastEco material with wood for distinctive, gorgeous awards that act as statement pieces. The plastics are upcycled and combined into sheets. Each sheet has distinctive colors and texture, much like a fine stone. These sheets are then milled down and inserted into wooden awards, which are personalized with your branding and messaging.

Our PlastEco award line is available with multiple designs, sizes, and decoration methods, with minimums as few as one piece. They’re a great option for milestone anniverarsies, performance awards, or leadership recognition.
