Adelaide Airport’s new recycling and waste system.

The display allows waiting travellers to pass the time by exploring what happens to something after they have thrown it into the (correct) bin.

Signage uprights

were made from thick, recycled cardboard and printed with eco-inks, while bases were re-used

from existing display infrastructure.

Display panels can be re-used at events and as wall signage, living on well after recycling has become a natural part of this busy international hub.

Once they’ve reached the end of their use, the signs can be recycled.

Says Matthew Wright-Simon, Ecocreative’s director: “To see that our work helps keep valuable resources out of landfill just gladdens my heart – and the more people recycle, the more affordable post-consumer materials become.”

The display is prominently placed in the main terminal of the airport.
