Unlocking the potential of plastic circularity to drive social progress and advance sustainable socio-economic development, creating lasting, double impact for people and the planet.

PET Lamp

PET Lamp transforms discarded plastic bottles into handcrafted lighting through a global network of artisan communities. Founded by designer Álvaro Catalán de Ocón, the project combines traditional craft techniques with sustainable design, creating economic opportunities for artisans while addressing plastic waste. Each collection represents a collaboration with different communities worldwide—from Colombia to Ethiopia—preserving cultural heritage and ancestral weaving methods. PET Lamp bridges craft tradition and contemporary design, proving that waste materials can become beautiful, functional objects while empowering local economies.
