First Recycled Rubber Sidewalks, Now Sinks

We recently wrote about how one city is using recycled rubber to replace cement sidewalks. Now an award-winning sink is made with recycled rubber. What will be next? Recycled rubber cars? Or, how about this creative idea: Recycling Chewing Gum Into Rubber.

Yes tires can be made into something beautiful – as in this case. The sink is black recycled rubber and it doesn’t take a lot to make it either. The modern design took less than 1 pound of recycled rubber to make. I’m not sure I like the name though. It’s called the RUBBiSH sink.

We’re all for green design – anyone have any other innovative uses of recycled rubber to share?
