TURN WASTE INTO OPPORTUNITY

We are a young and innovative italian reality which is patenting a process that aims to directly transform eyewear industrial waste into a new reusable material for many purposes, including 3D Printing.

Passion and Experience

Our vast experience in the design sector and expertise in 3D printing, combined with the need for the ecological transition has led us to focus on the reuse of industrial waste in a totally sustainable and versatile way. We are committed to reducing our environmental impact by recycling the maximum amount of waste using the fewest possible resources.

Our Mission

We aim to significantly reduce waste of the Italian accessories industry, through a direct process of recovery and transformation of industrial waste for production into filaments for 3D printing, making the material suitable for a multitude of applications. This is Zestep project.

WE MADE THE FIRST 3D PRINTING FILAMENT MADE OUT OF EYEWEAR PRODUCTION WASTE.

A truly sustainable project involving the Made in Italy fashion & accessories industries.

Is our common goal. We structured this project in order to be 360 degrees sustainable, from the collection of the scrap materials (at almost zero-miles) to the final product, minimizing waste and CO2 emissions.

The research of a real sustainable solution

Know how

Thanks to our different backgrounds, from eyewear design to mechanical engineer and chemistry, united by our passion for additive manufacturing and thanks to the collaborations with structured companies, we are able to successfully achieve our goals.

Final product

The output of our project is an easily 3D Printable compound, available in form of filament or granules.

Our compound enhances the properties of the thermoplastic materials used, letting the material be suitable for many applications, from prototyping to architecture & interior design.

RELEASE

THE FINAL VERSION OF ACETATE Filament is coming soon!

It features improved Bed and inter-layer layer adhesion, less warping and better impact resistance.
