Long term innovation
2022
To mark its 110th anniversary (1912-2022), Guzzini produces the “110” pitcher, a tribute to designerCharles F. Joosten, inspired by his famous 1957 drinks and beverages line. The new pitcher belongs to the Circle programme: it is made from bio-circular plastics, derived from plant biomass waste residues, 100% recyclable. The product’s bio-based content is calculated using the mass balance approach and is ISCC (International Sustainability & Carbon Certification) certified. “110” is a revolutionary new entry in the the tableware sector.
