CYCLE // BACHMANN„Design makes an important contribution to the preservation of the environment. It conserves resources and minimizes physical and visual pollution throughout the lifecycle of the product.“ (Dieter Rahms)
Power and energy distribution products are all around us and every person uses this type of equipment every day. Nevertheless, there are hardly any sustainable concepts. That's why it was important to us to design a product that addresses the topic of sustainable design holistically and on different levels. The variability of the functions, the choice of material, the CO2 compensation, and the package design.
The usability and lifecycle of a power strip will change with CYCLE. It doesn't matter whether it's attached to the desk, placed in the kitchen or located in the living room. So that the same product can be used for longer and in more ways, interchangeable end caps allow for different functional contexts and a longer life cycle. The sophisticated design avoids trends and appears functional, logical and timeless. The plastic used consists of 45% bio-based raw materials. In addition, we are currently working with BACHMANN on concepts in the area of recyclability within their own structures and production processes: The goal is a circular system in which new socket strips can be created from internal waste.
