The Ovetto Recycling Bin is a beautiful and stylish way for you to dispose of your household rubbish. The segmented design helps to make recycling simpler, with 3 different sections to take different types of refuse.

The Ovetto Recycling Bin has been created by Italian architect Gianluca Soldi. The recycling bin has a sleek curved design that has a modern feel to it, allowing it to fit into any home, school or office easily. The bin spins on its axis allowing you to either place it pride of place in the middle of a room, or to tuck it away into a corner and still have access to all 3 sections quickly and easily. Each of the 3 sections of the bin has a main compartment which opens up to allow for easy bag removal and a small upper circular covered opening for you to post your waste through. There is a central bottle crusher at the top of the bin to allow you to condense the rubbish easily.

The Ovetto Recycling Bin seals tightly to prevent any nasty smells leaving the bin. Each section can be lined with bin liners or even left over shopping carrier bags. The brightly coloured sections help you to be able to separate your rubbish into 3 groups quickly and efficiently, different coloured sections are available to allow you to match the door colour with the colour of outdoor recycle bin. The recycling bins are all made from a minimum of 40% recycled plastic themselves, up to a maximum of 70% recycled plastic.

The Ovetto Recycling Bin is an aesthetically pleasing way to help section your rubbish to make recycling easier and more fun. The spinning bin allows you easy access to any section whenever needed while being an attractive addition to any kitchen or workplace.

The Ovetto Recycling Bin is just £182.60 include shipping.

The Econova is an eco-friendly LED TV created by Philips. The 42 in screen TV has a modern look due to the use of recycled aluminum in its construction. The TV uses only 40W when in eco mode and is able to use 0W when switched off. The TV is supplied with a solar powered TV remote, which can save you from ever needing to change the batteries.

The Econova TV has been designed by Philips to provide a TV that produces a quality image while using a fraction of the energy. The 42 in screen uses the latest LED technology to produce a vibrant clear picture while using up to 60% less energy than similar devices. The zero power switch allows you to be able to turn off the set without the worries of slow drain usually associated with TVs, when it is turned off its power consumption is 0W.

By using recycled materials in the creation of the TV, the eco-friendliness of the device is multiplied. Recycled aluminum is used wherever possible to produce a modern stylish look that does not cost the earth. This aluminum framework allows the TV to be durable, strong and light. Materials used in its construction have been chosen for their ability to also be easily recycled, helping to ensure that once it has come to the end of its purposeful life it will still maintain its eco-friendliness.

The Econova is supplied with a remote control with a difference, the control features a solar panel as part of its design. To keep your control charged it therefore requires placement in a sunny or brightly lit spot positioned so the solar panel is pointing up to the light. By using clean, eco-friendly energy to power the remote control, the Econova further shows its dedication to being as green a TV as possible.

The Econova provides the clarity, quality and performance of any top range TV and couples this with true green credentials. By using significantly less energy than many other TVs, being able to use 0W when turned off, using recycled materials, being able to be recycled and having a solar powered remote, the design of the Econova shows the dedication that went into creating a truly eco-friendly TV.

3. Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame

The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame has been constructed from discarded motherboards. The frame allows you to display photographs in a way any technology geek will appreciate which gives a purpose to materials that would otherwise be discarded to landfill.

The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame has been created by Two’s Company. The frame comes in two sizes: 3 in x 3 in and 4 in x 6 in perfect for many standard sized photos. The framework is constructed from recycled printed circuit boards (PCBs). As mentioned with Circuit Board Clocks, Credit Card Holders, Coasters and other such circuit board products, many PCBs are created daily. Most pieces of electronics require one and so many are created in a range of sizes. One use for PCBs is as motherboards inside a PC.

The electronic equipment that PCBs are found in is largely seen to be disposable, to be discarded rather than fixed when broken. Because of this there is a very high sustained demand for many different types of electronics and so there is a high demand for these boards. The constant demand for these PCBs has lead to them being produced in very large quantities, many of them fail the stringent quality controls and so are never used while some never see use as they become obsolete as technology advances. The circuit boards are not easily recycled and many do not dispose of them correctly when an electronic item has come to the end of its useful life. Many are even sent on mass to landfill.

Two’s Company have taken PCBs in the form of computer motherboards and have re-purposed them into items of use, the frame provides a talking point in any room while displaying your photos in a modern setting. The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame makes a perfect gift for anyone with a passion for technology and/or the environment. The frame helps to give a motherboard a new life as a useful and decorative item that will suit any room.

The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame makes a perfect gift for just $9.19.

The Eco-cartridge is a concept for an ink cartridge that is made from recycled cardboard. The cartridge would save on packaging and would use a considerable amount less plastic to help the product decompose quickly.

The Eco-cartridge concept has been designed by Kevin Cheng to replace current Epson 79 printer cartridges. Each Eco-cartridge is made from one piece of recycled cardboard, the inside of the cartridge is lined with a biodegradable laminate to allow it to hold the ink without any leakage. The cardboard would need a little glue to form the cartridge, and the only additions to this would be the plastic port to connect to the printer and the cartridge chip.

The form of the box helps to reduce on packaging, unlike plastic cartridges there would be no need for any further boxing around the cartridge, the delicate parts have a protective cardboard covering which is simply torn off to allow you to place the cartridge into your printer. This lessens the packaging of a cartridge greatly, it also helps to reduce down the size of the cartridges for shipment helping to reduce the amount of transportation required to deliver them to the shops.

The Eco-cartridge concept would provide a great alternative to the overly wrapped plastic cartridges generally available for use. By using recycled cardboard and using the smallest amount of material as possible the cartridge would make a more sustainable option for today’s world.

I’ve had the good fortune to review a new eco-friendly mobile phone by Sony Ericsson. The Sony Ericsson Elm looks like just any other full-featured mobile phone, but has a whole raft of eco-friendly features. Features include use of recycled plastics, electronic manual on the phone, no hazardous chemicals, minimised packaging and water-based paints.

In terms of appearance, the Elm is a compact and attractive phone with a black plastic front, and a metallic rear. The large screen is bright and easy to read. I’d suggest you want a screen protector for the screen, as I get the impression that it might scratch easily. The buttons on the phone are perfect for us chaps with large fingers. The buttons do make a subtle click when pressed (tactile feedback is what I miss with the iPhone). Therefore I was typing out a text message really quickly.

I’ve never owned a Sony Ericsson phone, but I found the menus to be very intuitive and I was whizzing around the phone within a few seconds (without reading the instructions!). It became quite clear that to fully appreciate the phone, that you will need a contact/PAYG service where you have data. Many of the applications need internet access, such as Facebook, Twitter, Google Maps, etc.

The digital camera is pretty impressive. At a resolution of 5 megapixels, it’s pretty reasonable for a phone camera. However, I found the sharpness of the image and auto focus to be exceptionally excellent. Autofocus is one of those things with phone cameras that are generally a little rough around the edges, but this phone solves that problem.

In terms of green features, it’s good to see a phone avoiding hazardous materials like lead and mercury. What I did particularly like is the Walk Mate Eco application, which is essentially a pedometer. So when you go for a walk, the application can tell you how far you’ve walked. The application also tells you how much carbon dioxide you’ve saved by walking. If you’re the kind of person who likes to beat high scores in a game, then the pedometer application will push you to walk more and more!

So all in, the Sony Ericsson Elm is a decent looking and practical mobile phone. I think there’s a lot more to come in terms of eco-friendly features in the future, but I think that the Elm is a big step in the right direction.

These candles have been specifically designed to appeal to men. Mandles are candles which are encased in recycled glass beer bottles that help to freshen up any room with their scent without causing the embarrassment scented candles can bring to some men.

These Mandles use 4 different brands of beer bottle to form the housing for the candle. Each of these encase a candle that provides a room freshening lemon and thyme scent. Due to the construction from recycled glass beer bottles these Mandles help those who consider the environment while there scent improves the environment of the room they are in. They are made by St Eval Candle Company which is based in North Cornwall, they hand pour each of these scented candles to bring you a pleasant odor and container any man would be proud of.

Each Mandle is packed into recyclable packaging and the glass can be either reused or recycled once the candle is finished with. The refreshing scent of the candle should help to mask many common ‘man’ smells, from last nights kebab to cigarette smoke to unwashed socks! Using candles to freshen a room is considered by some as a more environmentally friendly method than the many different room aerosols that can be purchased, with these candles being safely contained within a recycled glass container these Mandles help to take that one step further.

The Mandles are available individually for £7.99 each, or as a pack of 4 for £29.99. You can choose from a Carlsberg, Corona, Corona Light or Sol Mandle, or get one of each in the 4-pack.

The Vac From The Sea is a concept by Electrolux to create vacuum cleaners from recycled plastic. Rather than using any old plastic they specifically wish to create vacuums from the plastic they will be gathering from the sea, either from floating plastic expanses or from shore lines.

With the Vac From The Sea concept, Electrolux hopes to highlight two major problems with plastic. Firstly the demand for plastic to recycle into more sustainable goods actually outstrips supply, meaning many who wish to create products from recycled plastic can struggle to do so. Secondly, and more importantly, there is a huge amount of plastic in the worlds waters. The oceans of this planet hold great amounts of plastic – there are vast floating island of plastic some, Electrolux informs us, are several times larger than the state of Texas. There is also a large quantity of plastic washed up on the worlds shorelines.

This plastic causes enormous problems for the environment, killing wildlife and destroying surrounding ecosystems. With only around 1% of plastic being recycled the amount of plastic going to waste is staggering. With Vac From The Sea this environmental horror can be turned into a new resource, helping to provide more recycled plastic that can be used to construct useful household items such as these vacuums. Electrolux plan to remove the plastic in different ways depending on the area they are working on, but methods will include diving for the plastic, scooping it from the waves, and clearing coastlines by hand. Hopefully the plastic reclaimed from the sea that is made into these products would never find its way back there. The dream would be that no other plastics find their way to our seas and that this clean up can highlight the action many need to take to recycle.
