Recycling Freccia Rossa ball container

The Recycling Freccia Rossa ball container is both a container, and a seat.
The inner compartment, ideal for storing balls, helmets, magazines, bags, games, etc., is very large despite the small external size, due to the shape of the original ventilation pipe and to the small thickness of the rust-free galvanized metal frame. The door is made of OSB and has some hardwood strips on it. The seat on the opposite side is also made of OSB and hardwood. All parts are recycled from discarded materials intended for dumping.
The Recycling Freccia Rossa ball container is thus a fully recycled piece of furniture: the frame is obtained from galvanized ventilation pipes, the doors from OSB panels (partition panels used at construction sites), whereas the hardwood strips are cut from packaging pallets. 
Finishing is performed using easily disposable, non-toxic oils and water enamel. 

The Recycling Freccia Rossa ball container is produced in limited edition. Only about 20 pieces are available.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Product history

Some time ago, we were furnishing a new shop in a mall under construction.
The situation was very tense, as dozens of shops and restaurants were going to open at the same time in a few days. The workers were literally stepping on each other’s feet. The result was an orgy of waste and nonsense. We looked around, imagining thousands of possible different utilizations for the materials that were being thrown away.
After finishing our job, we started collecting the things that had tickled our imagination and, in just a few minutes, we were able to fill our van.
