GET FIT WITH THE CIRCULAR PING PONG TABLE!

From burning raw materials for GREEN energy to burning energy during a game of PING PONG on garbage

That meetings do not have to be boring and contribute to a healthy work style they prove at Sweco in Arnhem. Healthy meetings are FUN, effective and fit the generation that designs the cities of the future. And the fact that the meeting table is made of construction waste and thus reduces waste and CO2 emissions is a nice bonus.

The material is upcycled from construction site waste and reused instead of thrown away. Many materials on construction sites are thrown away unused or single-use. This turns valuable materials into worthless waste on an epic scale. Every year we produce 60 million tons of waste together. 24% of this comes from the construction industry and is transported daily by road from warehouses to construction sites and from construction sites to waste processors. This causes enormous CO2 emissions. Only 4% is actually recycled.

It must be different! It can be done differently!

Sweco wants the circular economy and waste-free society to be visible in the organization. By using circular products made in the Netherlands and made from waste, Sweco contributes with its business operations to reducing waste and reducing the waste mountain. It is a conscious choice to choose circular products because this reduces the CO2 footprint. With the ping pong conference table, everyone learns in a playful way to look differently at materials and innovative constructions and this knowledge is applied back into its designs.

If you also want to meet or play PING PONG on waste join in. Help reduce the waste problem while playing.
