Ting

Ting is a company that specializes in making products out of vintage leather belts. You may be wondering what types of products they could possibly make, maybe wallets (they do), purses (they do that too), Floors? Yep, they make flooring constructed from old leather belts. This is one of those branching out moments for a company that can take an old recycled material that instead of being thrown away, they are turning into a design statement. The design process of the flooring is extensive, they are designed and hand made in the UK. Each floor tile is never going to be a like because they are made of entirely different materials. After researching about sustainible materials, I found out there are companies making luxury home decor out of many different recycled materials. From composite and glass counter tops to purses made from old belts, this is part of the green movement into the luxury world of design. Ting also creates pillows and other unique products out of seat belts. To learn more or view their other products their website is www.tinglondon.com
