Details
The product architecture of papyrus is made for circularity. Papyrus might be the most sustainable remote control on the planet. Why? The housing is made from bio-based material with cellulose content, the PCB is made out of paper, there are no harmful chemicals – all the printing is made with laser technology, and the sustainable product architecture guarantees easy refurbishing. Therefore, there is nearly no material that cannot be reused in a remote with a second life. Papyrus product architecture guarantees a genuinely circular economy, and with production in austria it comes also with a unique feature: a clean conscience.
The Jury‘s Statement
Many electronic products have a negative environmental impact due to materials that are difficult to recycle and energy-intensive manufacturing processes. The remote control »papyrus« addresses this challenge with a thoughtful and sustainable product architecture: bio-based materials, a paper-based circuit board, and the avoidance of harmful chemicals enable near-complete recyclability and significantly reduce the ecological footprint. With its resource-efficient production and remarkable circularity, "»papyrus«" serves as a progressive example of innovative technology that successfully meets both ecological and functional demands.
