Elvis & Kresse
Elvis & Kresse have been reclaiming London Fire Brigade decommissioned fire hoses since 2005, to produce a line of bags, purses, totes, iPad covers, wallets and belts. Adding other wasted materials soon after inception, Elvis & Kress also repurpose used printing blankets, military canvas, decommissioned parachute silk, and coffee sacks. Intercepting these materials en route to landfill or incineration, they revalue materials, helping to change the perception of what constitutes resource and what waste. Choosing to work with story laden materials of incredible character, Elvis & Kresse do everything they can to ensure the materials second life is as long as possible, and have rescued over 200 tons of wasted material so far.
