L’art de créer des vases durables : matériaux recyclés et impression 3D

The art of creating sustainable vases: recycled materials and 3D printing

At Maison Simona, we are committed to offering objects that combine innovation, sustainability and design. Our vases , made from recycled materials using 3D printing, embody this philosophy. Discover the key stages of their manufacture and how these materials – wood fiber, corn or recycled thermoplastic – are part of an eco-responsible process.

1. A sustainable raw material
To design these vases , the creators use renewable or recycled materials:
- Recycled wood fiber : Derived from waste from the wood industry, this fiber is mixed with a biodegradable thermoplastic base to create a robust and textured filament, imitating the natural appearance of wood.
- Corn starch (PLA) : This bioplastic is made from renewable resources such as corn. It is biodegradable and offers an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastics.
- Recycled plastic (rPLA) : We give a second life to plastic waste (such as PET bottles or packaging), transformed into filaments ready for 3D printing.

These materials are carefully selected for their durability, aesthetics and low environmental impact.

2. Design: imagination at your fingertips
It all starts with a design. Our vases are created using 3D modeling software (like Blender or Fusion 360), which allows you to explore complex and innovative shapes.
- A functional and aesthetic design : Designers play with textures, curves and geometries to obtain unique pieces, suitable for all interiors.

Once the design is finalized, it is converted into a file compatible with 3D printers.

3. 3D printing: a revolutionary technology
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is at the heart of our process. Here’s how it works:
- Material deposition : The recycled or bio-sourced material is transformed into filament, heated, then deposited layer by layer to give shape to the vase.
- Precision and details : This technique allows to produce objects with great precision, even for the most complex designs.
- Resource optimization : Unlike traditional methods, 3D printing generates little or no waste.


4. Finishing touches and finishing touches
Once printed, the vase goes through a finishing stage:
- Sanding : To smooth surfaces and ensure a pleasant texture to the touch.
- Natural varnish or paints : Some vases receive an additional finish to enhance their aesthetics or reinforce their durability.
- Raw appearance : Others are left with their natural texture, recalling their recycled or organic origin.


5. Why choose our vases ?
By choosing our vases , you support an environmentally friendly production method and contribute to a virtuous cycle where design and sustainability go hand in hand:
- Waste reduction : Each vase is made from recycled or renewable materials.
- Unique aesthetics : The combination of 3D printing and natural materials offers elegant and modern pieces.
- Eco-responsible commitment : Our vases demonstrate a commitment to a more sustainable future, by promoting innovative processes.


Join us in this sustainable approach
At Maison Simona, we believe in reimagined craftsmanship, blending tradition and technology. Our vases made from recycled materials and 3D printed are much more than just decorative objects: they tell a story, that of a design that respects the planet and resources.
