Automatisch gespeicherter Entwurf 247

Very often, small electrical appliances end up in residual waste and not in appropriate recycling facilities. However, our goal is to keep electrical appliances in a long-life cycle and to reduce electrical waste.

RUFUS is a stirring device that creates a deeper user-product relationship with the help of a self-assembly kit. This leads to a better understanding of the product and the resources used. Maintenance and repair are facilitated by easy access into the unit and fixed instructions. The enamelled metal housing creates an object-like appearance similar to ceramics and thus takes away the expiry date often associated with new technology.
