The streets of Milan, Italy have been adorned with flower pots made from recycled waste collected from the sea.
The streets of Milan, Italy have been adorned with flower pots made from recycled waste collected from the sea. This required over 2 tons of fishing nets and some plastic. The planters appeared as part of Ocean Week, which took place in the Italian city.
The pots were made using 3D printing. The use of this technology is not accidental. As a key technology for a circular and sustainable economy, 3D printing can help the fashion industry (of which Milan is the unofficial capital) to become sustainable.
For example, 3D printing is already heavily used in industry, but may be an increasingly common standard practice for textiles and footwear.
