CIRCULAR ECONOMY
From butt to raw material.
A cigarette filter is made of cellulose acetate – in other words, plastic. Our goal: not just to collect it, but to recycle and upcycle it ourselves – turning waste into raw material.
Our goal: the cycle in 4 steps
Collect
With Kippe's, every cigarette butt lands neatly in the box – instead of on the ground.
Recycle
We want to recycle the collected cigarette butts ourselves.
Upcycling
New things should emerge from the material – upcycling instead of discarding.
Full circle
Waste becomes everyday products – completing the circle.
Filter = Plastic.
Cigarette filters are made of cellulose acetate and break down into microplastics. When collected correctly, they are instead turned into reusable raw material.
From a box, a movement emerges.
Our goal: our own products made from recycled cigarette butt material that make the circular economy visible.
