WHY KNOT DESIGN
WHY KNOT DESIGN
Circular Designs made from Japanese Knotweed
Japanese Knotweed is an invasive species that is spreading rapidly across the Netherlands leaving a trail of destruction in public spaces and our biodiversity.
Turning a hated plant into a loved product.
We are developing a material that is versatile and 100% made from Japanese Knotweed without damaging additives. The material can be reused and eventually biodegrade.
Winner of the BlueCity Circular Challenge 2022!
Within six weeks, we developed a proof of concept and business case for our knotweed material. With the support of experts in the field of circular economy and a lot of motivation, we created a glimpse of our future vision.
We are looking forward to taking our next steps in the development of our material, to help people finding peace with this hated plant!
