Reco Young Designer Competition 2020

About the Competition

RECO, the largest upcycling design competition in Thailand hosted annually by Indorama Ventures, aims to raise awareness on using PET and polyester waste to create brilliant and inspiring designs. One of the aims of RECO is to demonstrate new skills, and it comes as a surprise to many that these designs are created from waste materials.

Every year, we showcase the knowledge and creativity of a new generation helping them create great designs for a better society and a cleaner environment. Indorama Ventures selects 30 shortlisted candidates to attend eco-design workshops led by professionals in the design industry, providing skills and knowledge for practical execution. 10 finalists will use this knowledge to produce their upcycled-design collection to show at the final event.

Deadline for submission of application: 12th October 2020
