About Plasticiet
Plasticiet set out to change the way we view plastic. Rather than a waste material, plastic should be viewed as the new gold and treated as a highly valued resource – never cast aside. Made in the Netherlands, Plasticiet shift perceptions of plastic from waste into a beautiful, precious resource.
Created with reuse and repurpose in mind, all of the materials use plastic for its incredible longevity to make high-end fully recycled surfaces for design. Inspired by the beauty of natural stone, each surface uses a singular waste plastic like polystyrene or polycarbonate – recycled into beautiful surface materials that reduces plastic waste and can be made new again and again. With the ability to process large volumes of plastic often unwanted or contaminated and destined for landfill or incineration, Plasticiet capture and transform waste into a material for furniture, fixtures, architecture and design.

Mother of Pearl Colours
What began as an experimentation in craft and materiality, extends into swirling surfaces that envelop shimmering colours - as Bosch Green, Dune Gold, Gentle Blue Happy Orange, Victoria Green join Mother of Pearl Original Silver and Graphite. Each surface's depth reflects light and adds elegance to design spaces. Bespoke colours can be developed based on RAL or Pantone colours and your design intent - share your sketches, renders, colour matching and moodboards as part of a custom curation.
Because the material is handcrafted - twisting and pulled much like taffy or boiled sweets, every Mother of Pearl sample shows unique patterns, and no two sheets are identical. Evolving with time, the material is available in 12mm thickness, and the fully recycled polycarbonate surfaces maintain the classic look used in luxury retail designs by Jil Sander, OMA Architects for Bershka, Ace & Tate and Karl Lagerfeld.
