"DURAT is a solid polyester based material used for custom made surfaces in public and private interiors. It contains recycled plastics and is itself 100% recyclable."If you visit DURAT website this is their key sentece; they work with recycled plastics and propose a collections of objects and interior design elements targeted to restaurants, cafes, shops, hospitals, laboratories, boats and ships, bathrooms and kitchens.
This DURAT material is very resistent and it is possible to renew it just by sanding slightly the surface, they also applied a "soft touch" to the exterior surface and brilliant colors, too.
It is the best mix for designers that intend to use this material and extend its use respecting the environment designing "clean and green".
Here some photos of different proposals done by DURAT Design.
