Fragment is a collection of skateboards made of rubber from End-of-Life Tyres (ELT). Through the shredding processes, the rubber of the tyre is transformed into economical granules that maintain all the technical properties of the rubber such as grip, strength and elasticity. End-of-Life tyres come to life in the form of a skateboard, giving you a second chance to keep on travelling
Recycled rubber skateboard. The second life-cycle of tyres through the shredding process
The young designer Paolo Stefano Gentile designs and produces Fragment, a collection of skateboards made of rubber from End-of-Life Tyres (ELT). Through the shredding processes, the rubber of the tyre is transformed into granules capable of maintaining all the technical properties of the tyre.
It is a project that aims to target everyone, an unpretentious, practical, fun and safe means of transport. A skateboard to run around town. The project has been carried out thanks to the patronage of the New Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, and with the help of the presenter Claudio Larcher.
