The story behind

The WAVE screen by alcarol aims to represent one of the main problems submerged in the oceans of our planet: the ghost nets.

Almost one tenth of the ocean plastic waste consists of abandoned fishing nets turning millions of sea creatures into victims.

Fishing nets are made of nylon, a high-performance plastic that is now also completely recyclable.

The Wave screen is made of some coloured nets from the oceans melted together with ECONYL® material, the translucent regenerated nylon produced through an innovative and sustainable chemical process that regenerate waste such as fishing and aquaculture nets and other nylon waste.

Inspired by the ocean waves of Hokusai, the Wave screen is an abstract reflection about the fragile condition of our oceans.
