From old fishing nets to festival merch: Meet our new partner, Plasteriet!
Say goodbye to mass-produced, imported plastic items with an untraceable social footprint. Green Producers Club is incredibly proud to present our newest partner: Plasteriet.
Operating out of Norway, they transform local plastic waste into unique medals, trophies, and merchandise, combining circular materials with genuine craftsmanship. One of the most unique things about Plasteriet is that they don't use artificial dyes. The vibrant colors of their products come directly from the specific plastic waste they collect.
Every colour has an origin story, this means you can literally see and trace the circular history in every single product!
Red and blue
Sourced from Kavli tube caps.
Yellow
Upcycled from Synnøve Finden cheese boxes and old shopping baskets.
White and transparent
Candy boxes from the Nidar chocolate factory.
Dark blue, green and brown
Recycled fishing nets and ropes from the ocean (via Oceanize). And snusboxes off course!
Craftsmanship and social sustainability
Ordering from Plasteriet isn't just a click in an anonymous webshop. It involves real people. Plasteriet collaborates closely with Meskano, an inclusive workplace. Their team receives the raw molded items, cuts them, carefully glues on the customized cork centers for the medals, and packs them. Choosing Plasteriet means your merch budget supports both environmental and social sustainability.
What can they make for your next project?
Whether you work in sports, music, film, or events, there are endless possibilities.
Plasteriet’s offerings can be divided into two main categories:
1. Ready-to-go (Existing molds)
If you want a fast process with zero startup costs, Plasteriet has a library of existing molds. You can play around with different recycled color combinations and customise the text/logo on the center cork piece or with stamped text.
Medals: Perfect for sports and cultural awards.
Carabiners: A popular, practical festival or events giveaway.
Coasters: Great for backstage areas or music venues.
Wall hooks: For hanging up equipment on set or in venues.
2. Dream it, make it (Custom molds)
If you want something entirely unique, Plasteriet can design a custom injection mold specifically for you. While this involves a one-time investment cost for the tool itself (making it ideal for recurring events or high volumes), the creative possibilities are endless.
They have previously made custom pins, bag tags, and big awards like the prestigious Norwegian Jazz Award. Explore some of the items they have made below!
But what else could be made? Let’s get creative!
Custom Guitar Picks? A perfect merch item for bands and music festivals.
Heavy-duty Bottle Openers? Imagine supplying your festival volunteer crew with branded, recycled tools to open cans and bottles efficiently!
Magnetic Call-Sheet Clips? A smart, branded clip for film crews to hold daily schedules on set.
Conference Attachments? Custom mechanisms or clips to attach to event lanyards.
Museum/Crew Pins? Bespoke, colorful uniform pins for venue staff or museum guides.
Reusable Festival Tokens? Branded drink tokens that can be washed and reused year after year.
We want to make it easier for our members to choose circular alternatives.
That’s why Plasteriet offers all Green Producers Club members a fixed 10% discount on all products!
