Turning Plastic Pollution into Purposeful Design

In this episode of Kusa Cast, host Graeme Watson had the privilege of interviewing Alexis Cronin, the co-founder of Dunia Designs. Dunia Designs is a remarkable company driven by a powerful mission inspired by the global plastic crisis. The company was born out of a shared concern between Alexis and Evanna Cronin, who were deeply troubled by the sight of their community's streets and rivers being increasingly polluted by plastic waste. Dunia Designs uses recycled plastic and creates furniture and building materials. They aimed to clean up not just their own community but also contribute to global environmental efforts. Their team grew to include Elaine and Julia, forming a well-balanced dream team dedicated to taking Dunia Designs to new heights. Since its inception in 2016, Dunia Designs has recycled an impressive 900 tonnes of plastic waste. By purchasing furniture from Dunia Designs, customers actively participate in cleaning up the planet and supporting local initiatives while embracing sustainable shopping practices. At the heart of Dunia Designs is an unwavering commitment to providing consumers with honest and truly impactful products. Each beautiful piece is crafted from recycled waste plastic, effectively contributing to the planet's cleanup efforts and the preservation of trees. For more information on Dunia Designs, click here.
