Foto di Carlita Antonucci - e stasera? esco!!! Rubber Table. Trendsetter. Don’t Let This Get Past Your Eyes: MilkMuny Wallet. Apple didn't invent the mp3 player nor the smart phone, but they sure know how to bring to market versions of the genre that make people sit up and take notice. And such might be the case with Milkmuny. This new start-up business, from Portland, Oregon, sells a very funky origami-like wallet made of discarded milk and juice cartons. We previous seen foil cartons turned into totebags and handbags, as well as food wrappers become purses and shoulder bags.
So the idea isn't totally new. Milkmuny is the brainchild of Portland based industrial designer, John Schreiber. But back to that business model. Plastic 'waxed' cartons stay out of landfill; community groups get much needed funds; customers get a cool wallet of reused materials complete with a 45 day warranty; Milkmuny make some dough for their trouble, and donate a percentage of profits to environment groups. All the best to the team at Milkmuny as they develop the product range further. ::Milkmuny , via tipster Ian Y.
