Recognition,
remade.

Trophies, medals and awards fabricated from post-consumer plastic collected inside the UAE — shredded, pressed and finished in our own Jebel Ali facility. Same ceremony. No virgin material.

The idea

An award should honour the future it celebrates — not cost it anything.

The method

From waste stream to award ceremony

Flat tiles cut from pressed recycled plastic sheet in several batch colours
Colour is sorted, not pigmented
No. 01

Collection & sorting

Post-consumer and industrial plastic waste from UAE partners, sorted by polymer and colour.

No. 02

Brief & concept

Your brand guidelines, award categories and ceremony date become a written concept.

No. 03

3D design & mockups

You approve a 3D preview and a physical prototype before any production begins.

No. 04

Fabrication & finishing

Pressed, cut, moulded, assembled, UV printed or engraved — then finished by hand.

No. 05

Delivery & take-back

Delivered presentation-ready. Returned at end of life, shredded, and pressed again.

The material

Colour comes from the caps, not the pigment

The standard collection follows the UAE flag — red for bravery, green for agriculture, white for peace, black for strength. Batch codes let you hold a look consistent across a full set of awards.

Rendered indicatively. Actual colour and flake pattern differ by batch — physical samples are sent before production.

Feedstock

Post-consumer and post-industrial HDPE and PP — bottle caps, containers and flexible packaging, collected in the UAE.

Forms produced

Pressed sheet, cast beam, moulded parts and CNC-cut profiles, produced in-house.

Marking

Full-colour UV print, laser engraving and inlaid plates. Names and categories vary per piece.

Resistance

Water, UV and impact resistant — suitable for indoor display and outdoor installation.

Density & heat

Approx. 0.95 g/cm³ — lighter than glass or crystal at equal volume. Keep below approx. 80 °C.

End of life

Awards are returned, shredded and re-pressed into new material. No downcycling to landfill.

The collection

Standard shapes, or built to your drawing

Standard shapes require no tooling, so they suit smaller runs and short lead times. Custom forms need a mould or CNC path — and a longer runway.

Flat UV-printed pieces cut from recycled sheet

Flat

Medal · UV print

An 8 cm round medal, full-colour UV printed on recycled sheet. The practical answer for race packs and volume runs where a mould makes no sense.

Award · UV print

A solid block that reads like marble. Weight in the hand does most of the work; the printed plate carries the name.

Award · UV print

Disc form with a printed centre plate. Stands upright on a base, or lies flat as a desk piece once the event is over.

Circular ring

Award · UV print

An open loop — the shape most sustainability programmes ask for, because the metaphor reads from the back of the room.

Three stacked blocks in contrasting batches, so the recycled material becomes the visible design decision rather than a footnote.

The figure
