Electrolux makes Vacs from ocean waste
In summer this year, Electrolux had announced that it will make vacuum cleaners from plastic waste in the ocean. This would be the company’s attempt to raise awareness about the huge swathes of plastic waste floating around in our oceans. Staying true to its word, Electrolux has released a series of five vacs, all with exteriors made from plastic waste in the oceans, and each representing a specific water body.
The seas represented are the North Sea, the Indian Ocean, the Mediterranean Sea, the Pacific Ocean, and the Baltic Sea. There are obvious problems with mass-producing vacuum cleaners from ocean plastic, so the company is planning to auction one of these vacs and continue research.
