Gumnetic Bubblegum Bin

 

Made from recycled chewing gum too! A street side bin specially designed for the disposal of the gum. Anna Bullus won with her ‘Gumnetic Bin’ the British Councils National Design Award for 2007.

A whole new material from chewing gum and bio resin that has unique properties and characteristics some of which enable the formation of this product. The product offers a unique and practical solution to a widespread problem housed within an innovative sustainable process; the bin itself collects raw material in the form of discarded chewing gum from which to produce new bins.
