The home accessories of the tresta range are made from the residues of wine production in combination with one of four possible binders. The resulting, biodegradable material is pleasant to touch and smell and visually appealing. It is suitable for a wide range of products, such as for the manufacture of lights or wine coolers. Depending on the type of binder used, it is possible to create high-resistance or sound-absorbing compounds which can be turned into packaging or wall tiles. tresta also offers an alternative to plastic for 3D printing. As prototype, an urn was developed.
