It all started at Niaga®
Designed to use Again and again and again.
Back then, we designed the Niaga Click-Unclick adhesive, that made the circular transition possible for companies like Object Carpet and Royal Auping.
Now we are back making the world a bit better, step by step, again and again.
Outdoor clothing to protect
Against not only the rain, but all you can encounter.
Most waterproof clothing made with a plastic layer or membrane, where the biggest player only now is starting to step off of PFAS based layers but still are based on petrochemical materials, limiting the recycling capability of these multi-material constructions.
We are researching constructions that are bio-based or even don’t use membranes at all and use nature itself as inspiration.
Because we are out there, and sometimes it seems like nature tries to tell us to do better.
Making clothing natural again
Did you know that a lot of woolen clothing contain petrochemical plastics? Designed only with cost and the use-phase in mind, without regard for the end of use life, making reuse or recycling extra difficult.
We can do better. Therefore we will start a project on the elimination of these petrochemical materials, keeping in-use properties, whilst designing for life after the use phase.
To make woolen clothing natural again!
Hot cities - cool solutions
Developing an alternative for ceramic facades to counter the increasing heat due to climate change. The aim is to develop our solution for a tile that does not take up the radiation heat of the sun as conventional brick walls do. Where conventional brick walls can reach up to 60°C in full sun in the summer, we are aiming to reduce that significantly.
This will not only keep the exterior of the house cool, it will also keep the interior of the house at a much more comfortable level, and will help negate the heat on the streets.
Your project here?
It all begins with an idea. You have the ambition to increase sustainability of your shoes, gym equipment, textile or anything you can think of, and don’t know where to begin? Contact us and let’s see together how we can tackle your questions.
We can start with a brainstorm, or a couple of days of feasibility study, or maybe you want a full fledged project.
At Orange Parrot, we are open to any type of collaboration and are happy to help.
