Vacs From The Sea by Electrolux
Vacs From The Sea is an initiative of Electrolux to raise awareness of the huge amount of plastic waste in the oceans by deploying teams to collect some of it and turn it into a series of vacuums.Designers produced units that contain 70 percent recycled materials found in 5 oceans. The one-off designs will be used to promote ocean clean-up efforts. Plastic debris has been gathered in many different ways. For the concept vacuum cleaner called The Baltic Sea Edition, plastic was collected from three different sites in Poland, Sweden and Latvia. In Sweden, the collection site was Sandhamn, a small island in the Stockholm archipelago. Special Vac from the Sea-envelopes were distributed to people in the small harbor. Sandhamn is known for its sailing and on this particular day, there were not only one, but two sailing races taking place. Needless to say, the harbor was packed.
