Some vacuum cleaners come from the sea (image gallery)
March 13th, 2012
Trust Electrolux – with it’s edgy, innovative designs – to come up with a series of vacuum cleaners that have been made from plastic taken out of the world’s oceans.
The Vac from the Sea concept was created to raise awareness about the 143 billion kilograms of plastic floating about the oceans and the threat it poses to marine habitats.
According to Electrolux, using recycled plastic to make sustainable appliances is crucial. The company is committed to green appliances in Australia, too.
In fact, last year Electrolux UltraSilencer won the sustainability award in the Australian International Design Awards. The winning product is made from 55 per cent recycled plastics and uses a 35 per cent more efficient engine than the average 2000-watt.
Here are the Vacs from the Sea:
