The City of Amsterdam has teamed up with TRIBOO to create a unique place to train its employees. The beautiful, bright spaces are separated by a green waterfall of circular plant pots filled with oxygen plants. Good for the planet and for the brain.

Besides the well-known round plant pots and 'the sheep', TRIBOO now also has hanging, circular plant pots. These pots are made of plastic waste from old refrigerators. Using 3D robot printing, worthless 'waste' is turned into a high-profile, valuable circular product that is completely reusable at the end of its useful life.

WASTE COSTS ARE CHANGED INTO RESOURCE YIELDS

Each pot contains nine kilos of pure raw material. When the municipality of Amsterdam no longer needs the pots, TRIBOO takes them back and turns them into another circular product. In this way, a refrigerator is transformed into a plant pot and later into a table. We don't waste any more raw materials and don't throw anything away. TRIBOO takes care of that.

30 CIRCULAR PLANT POTS CREATE A VISUAL SEPARATION BETWEEN SPACES.

In their current form, the 30 circular plant pots create a visual separation between the spaces. This creates a pleasant, light environment with a healthy effect on the indoor climate. Each pot contributes to solving the problem of waste and makes the circular economy visible to everyone. It provides more oxygen to feed the brain during the training and education provided in this unique building.

DEVELOPING CIRCULAR PRODUCTS FROM WASTE TOGETHER

Together with its clients, TRIBOO develops high-profile furnishing concepts that connect circularity and health. Together getting the maximum potential out of people and making an active contribution to the genesis of the circular economy and realization of the waste-free society.

MADE IN HOLLAND CONTRIBUTES TO CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND REDUCTION OF CO2 EMISSIONS

TRIBOO's circular products are made in the Netherlands. By producing locally, using local raw materials and working with top designers from the Netherlands we create a strong proposition that improves employment in the Netherlands. We reduce CO2 emissions by not using new raw materials, applying efficient production techniques and making few kilometers.

PRODUCT AS A SERVICE

Everything is temporary and we cannot own anything. Because we as humans cannot deal with ownership, we throw away raw materials and they are destroyed in the incinerators. If you also believe, as we do, that responsibility is the key to a waste-free society and the circular economy, then do not become a product owner yourself. Place it with the organisation of TRIBOO. We make sure that raw materials are not thrown away anymore but are reused and made into other circular products. If your people and organisation change because your customers or market changes, the circular organisation changes with you. You pay for our service without feeling guilty about irresponsible handling of property. We make sure that the investment in circular furnishings creates an improved proposition for you and your customers.

FROM WASTE COSTS TO RAW MATERIAL VALUE TO CUSTOMER VALUE

And when you are finished with it, we continue with it! TRIBOO remains the owner of the raw materials and together we make sure they are not thrown away again. At the end of the product's life, we pay you back the raw material value of the product and turn it into other circular products!
