"Recycled plastic products often fall into two camps: grey utilitarian bins or loud, speckled experiments that feel more like proof of concept than something you want on your desk. Tray210 recycled, a collaboration between Korean studio intenxiv and manufacturer INTOPS under the rmrp brand, takes a different approach, using recycled plastics and waste additives to create a tray that feels like a considered object first and an eco story second, treating material diversity as part of the design language."
"The form is intuitive, a 210 mm circle with a raised, ribbed bar running across the middle and two shallow wells on either side. The central groove is sized for pens, pencils, or chopsticks, and the ribs keep cylindrical objects from rolling away. The side compartments are open and shallow, perfect for earbuds, clips, rings, or keys. It is the kind of layout you understand at a glance without needing instructions or labels; just place your pen where the grooves are."
Tray210 recycled is a circular three-compartment tray developed through collaboration between intenxiv and manufacturer INTOPS, evolving from the original Tray210 form. The design features a 210 mm circular profile, a raised ribbed bar across the center for pens or chopsticks, and two shallow side wells for small items like earbuds, clips, rings, or keys. Multiple recycled-material blends correspond to waste sources: Clam and Wood use 80% recycled PP with shell or wood waste; Charcoal incorporates 15% charcoal; Stone contains 10–50% recycled ABS; Transparent and Marble use recycled PC or PCABS with ceramic particles or marble-like pigment. The product emphasizes material diversity as a deliberate aesthetic.
