Duct Tape Wallet become Beautiful


I came across the Db Clay company on the internet and saw their wallet collections and was amazed by how duct tape wallet can become. The material the company use is call "Tope" that is made from non-toxic raw materials while having no "hazardous chemicals typically found in most vinyl-based product."1

The company also claim the material are produced away from dioxin, heavy metal or phthalate pollution and it would decompose when being buried.

The ink they use to print on material is also non toxic ink so the whole manufacturing process is eco friendly.

They even have duct tape kit and booklet show you have to do a duct tape wallet yourself.

Their website is http://ww2.dbclay.com/

Entrants must create designs that take into account the volume of mattress waste generated each year.
