Bond Gear 2010 preview




What is the story behind Bond ? well they claim to be 100% carbon neutral. Technically speaking that means the raw material used and the production of the gears shouldn't create any carbon emission. Do to so they have used:
-Blend of recycled PET + virgin PET (recyclable)
usually the percentage is at most 30/70 otherwise the mechanical properties are be weakened.
-Discarded plastic pellets to make the buttons, etc..
-Discarded coconut shell

I couldn't find any details about the company infrastucture because they should use solar panel, smart water treatment,etc.. in order to be as they claim 100 carbon neutral.
