CERSAIE 2009: ECO VINTAGE – A magic woods made of eco-sustainable ceramics
There’s a magic wood, made only of eco-sustainable ceramics and colorful recycled fabrics, rising at Cersaie 2009, International Exhibition of Ceramic Tile and Bathroom Furnishings in Bologna: it’s the booth « Eco Vintage » by Novoceram, French ceramics manufacturer since 1863, who celebrates the achievement of its environmental certification.
Novoceram, French ceramics manufacturer since 1863, starts at Cersaie 2009 a new chapter for its creativity, showing a path through the stand “Ecovintage” that becomes a magic woods made of eco-sustainable ceramics and vintage fabrics.
An audacious concept who conceives a surrealistic oasis in the forest, inhabited by a gentle spirit, who decided to live dipped in nature in order to rediscover his most authentic dimension, but when night comes down he approaches again to city borders to capture the objects that men have discarded, taking them with him, to restore new life and to furnish his secret nest.
Real logs, coming from replanted crops, alternate and blend with fake tree trunks covered with vintage clothing fabrics that match with the style of the different pieces of furniture, all found in flea markets, in the ecological spirit of recycle and reuse, always respecting the fil rouge of charm, one of the corporate values of Novoceram.
With “Ecovintage”, Novoceram also celebrates the achievement of ISO 14001 and ISO9001 certifications and the Ecolabel for the full collections range, showing once again the company commitment in environmental sustainability.
The path through the stand leads the visitor in the discover of the company collections: Elixir, Samsara and Origine and the precious ceramic coverings TrèsJouy and Florilège.
