Novus: Closing the loop on pet accessories production

**ProjectBlu**是一家总部位于英国的中小型企业，经营宠物配件市场，拥有最先进的制造能力和全球影响力。ProjectBlu提供可持续的高质量和耐用的狗床/项圈/导绳，由回收纺织品/皮革，废弃渔网和海洋塑料制成。凭借其行业领先的家具行业专业知识，ProjectBlu以独特的产品在市场上占据了一席之地。他们屡获殊荣的产品和他们的创新思维已经动摇了行业的标准，并强调了这些产品可能对环境产生的影响。今天，ProjectBlu想把他们的可持续发展战略提升到一个新的水平，采取从摇篮到摇篮的方法来生产狗床。与第一名合作英国宠物用品零售商petsahome和回收分包合作伙伴家具回收集团（TFRG），床垫回收公司，他们将测试和验证从制造到报废的整个生命周期的回收过程：收集脏的/用过的床，对材料进行消毒，直到将其重新制造成更高质量的产品。通过**Novus**项目，ProjectBlu将开发一种新的革命性工艺，使该行业减少对进口的依赖，减少对环境的影响，并加强英国家具制造业。

**ProjectBlu** is a UK-based SME operating in the pet accessory market, with state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities and worldwide reach. ProjectBlu offer sustainable high quality and built-to-last dog beds/collars/leads made of recycled textiles/leather, discarded fishing nets and ocean-bound plastic. Drawing on their industry-leading furniture industry expertise, ProjectBlu has made its place on the market with a unique offering. Their award-winning products and their innovative mindset have shaken the sector's standards and highlighted the environmental impact that those products could have.Today, ProjectBlu wants to take their sustainable strategy to the next level by taking a cradle-to-cradle approach to dog beds production. In collaboration with the no.1 British pet supplies retailer **PetsatHome** and recycling subcontracting partner **The Furniture Recycling Group** (TFRG), mattress recycling company, they will test and validate a full life cycle recycling process from manufacturing to end-of-life: the collection of soiled/used beds, the sanitisation of the materials all the way to their remanufacturing into higher quality products. Through the **Novus** project, ProjectBlu will develop a new revolutionary process that will make the industry less reliant on imports, reduce its environmental impact, and strengthen the British furniture manufacturing sector.
