Catch of the day: Limited Covid-19 editon is a hand sanitiser specially designed for DesignMarch 2020. The project is based on Catch of the day that was nominated to the Icelandic Design Awards in 2018 with overall aim of reducing food waste and prevent spread of Covid-19. For the production leftover fruits from local food importers are used as a raw material - fermented and distilled - highlighting the materials potential use-value.
Plastplan is a plastic recycling project / facility / design studio located in Reykjavík. Day to day opperations include plastic recycling, design and product development. The production makes way for circulation of post consumer plastic for the first time in Iceland.
Plastplans goal is to create valuable and functional objects from recycled plastic. With prooving tha plastic can be a valuable raw material Plastplan hope to turn around societies unhealthy relationship with the material. Currently Plastplan are focusing on "mundane innovation" with their collaborators, to be able to address the problem with an audience wider than only the design community.
Catch of the day is fighting food waste - one spirit bottle at a time!
Spirits produced from leftover fruits prolongs the ‘best before’ date to infinity - since alcohol over 23% can never go bad. Armed with a simple open-source distilling machine, Björn Steinar is seeking innovative ways to fight food waste, and at the same time the project serves as an icebreaker in a very important discussion.
In collaboration with local food importers, that supply discarded fruits, and a local gin producer, Catch of the day is developing into a market ready product with a very strong statement.
