DESIGN HAS ALWAYS PLAYED A DECISIVE ROLE IN WHAT MATTIUSSI ECOLOGIA REPRESENTS AND SEEKS TO REPRESENT. FORM AND SUBSTANCE ARE COMBINED IN A PRODUCT FOR WHICH AESTHETICS AND FUNCTIONALITY ARE THE MAJOR DRIVERS, SEEKING NOT MERELY TO PRODUCE RATIONAL, ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY TOOLS, BUT ALSO STRIVING TO CREATE PRODUCTS THAT CAN IMPROVE WHAT NATURE ALONE CANNOT GENERATE. THIS OBJECTIVE IS ACHIEVED THROUGH THE CLOSE RELATIONSHIP BINDING CREATIVITY WITH THE CONSTANCY OF THE VALUES THAT DRIVE US.

FOR MANY YEARS MATTIUSSI ECOLOGIA HAS ESTABLISHED WINNING COLLABORATIONS WITH ARCHITECTS AND SUCCESSFUL INTERPRETERS OF ITALIAN DESIGN, THE FRUIT OF A SHARED PASSION FOR THE AESTHETIC INTERPRETATION, ERGONOMICS AND PRACTICALITY THAT DESIGN EMBODIES IN ITS PRODUCTS, WITH INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS THAT ARE RESPECTFUL OF PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT. IT IS THANKS TO THIS KIND OF INTERACTION THAT THE COMPOSTER 660, DESIGNED BY “DECOMA DESIGN”, WAS NOMINATED BY ADI (THE ITALIAN INDUSTRIAL DESIGN ASSOCIATION) FOR THE “COMPASSO D’ORO” AWARD, ONE OF THE BIGGEST ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS IN THE ITALIAN DESIGN WORLD.

WE BELIEVE IN THE IMPORTANCE OF DESIGN AS A TOOL WITH WHICH TO RAISE ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS IN INDIVIDUALS AND IN THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE, OFFERING MORE SUITABLE EQUIPMENT IN ORDER TO PERSUADE EVEN SERIOUS SCEPTICS THAT WASTE CONSTITUTES A NEW RESOURCE. THIS IS THE CONVICTION UNDERLYING THE INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION “CREATABLE RESOURCES”, THROUGH WHICH MATTIUSSI ECOLOGIA SEEKS TO ATTRACT THE ATTENTION OF YOUNG, ECO-FRIENDLY DESIGNERS, TO CREATE NEW PRODUCTS FOR SORTED WASTE COLLECTION, AND ESTABLISH STIMULATING COLLABORATIONS. FOR MATTIUSSI ECOLOGIA, ONE OF THE MANY WAYS TO EXPRESS ITS COMMITMENT TO SAFEGUARDING THE ENVIRONMENT IS BY CONSTANTLY PROMOTING YOUNG IDEAS, BECAUSE THE NEW GENERATIONS, PRESENT AND FUTURE, ARE THIS PLANET'S MOST IMPORTANT RESOURCE.
