Sustainable Trophies
How we think about sustainability & what we do about it for your awards
To do more good for our environment and to do less harm.
More & Less.
Keep it simple. Do it well. Don't stop.We choose materials
What do we use to make your awards more sustainable
More recycled materials
Using more recycled materials reduces the need for new resources. We take material that would have been thrown away and craft it into something beautiful and meaningful for you.
Recycled plastic
Plastic like bottle caps, shampoo bottles & detergent containers are usually discarded. However, we collect, sort, clean, shred, remelt this material to create captivating trophies for your event.
Felled urban trees
In Singapore, urban trees are felled for development or trimmed for roadside safety. We reclaim and repurpose this local wood for your designs and give them new life and meaning as your symbols of achievement.
Discarded shipping pallets
Our designs also incorporate pinewood salvaged from discarded shipping pallets. This wood naturally boasts a varied range of colors and tones, creating a one-of-a-kind aesthetic.
More renewable materials
Bamboo
Bamboo is a prime example of a renewable material that we use for your designs. Bamboo grows and matures quickly, regrows from its roots, and requires minimal resources, making it an eco-friendly choice of material for your awards.
Jesmonite
Jesmonite is a concrete-like material that is composed of gypsum, an abundant natural mineral. Your jesmonite awards are made using a water-based casting process that avoids pollutive chemical solvents. The natural air-drying process also uses minimal energy to create vibrant and unique awards for your event.
More easily recycled materials
Products made from a single material are typically more straightforward to recycle, whereas items consisting of multiple materials often face challenges in the recycling process due to their complex composition. Hence, we opt for materials like aluminium, acrylic and cardboard for your awards and packaging based on this principle.
We refine processes
How do we make your awards more sustainably
Less material used
By shape
We consistently strive to create trophy designs for you that achieve the desired aesthetic but use less material.
By process
Whenever possible, we upcycle leftover packaging into internal support structures, minimizing the need for extra materials to create your desired form.
Less waste generated
New technology
We adopt new technologies like 3D printing into our processes. This innovation creates your trophies layer by layer, using only the necessary materials, leaving behind little to no waste.
Recycling
We put in place processes to collect and recycle all production offcuts like aluminium and acrylic.
Less energy used
100% Renewable energy
From July 2024, all of our premises are powered by renewable energy validated through International Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). In addition, we strike a balance between productivity and environmental responsibility by employing modern production equipment, energy-efficient lighting and air conditioning. Our approach extends beyond systems to individual actions. Small steps like turning off equipment and appliances when not in use have been part of our operating culture laid down since the company started back in 1985 and such small actions accumulate to become significant over time.
We develop people
Who will make the effort to make sustainability work
More knowledge & skills
We invest in educating and training our team about the significance of sustainability. By fostering awareness and knowledge, we empower every team member to take environmentally responsible actions for your project, aligning with our common goal to shape a more eco-conscious future.
Less defects & waste
We consistently work to improve both individual skills and collaborative teamwork within our team. Coordinated efforts and proficient skills drive streamlined operations, elevate production accuracy and quality for your project, culminating in a substantial overall reduction of production defects and waste.
We don't stop
We promise relentless consistency. We work to do all of the above all the time for you and our environment.
We make our concepts and plans simple.
More & Less.
Keep it simple. Do it well. Don't stop.
