Bassi Bormio

Bormine production is designed and manufactured on the basis of a sustainable production and consumption model (circular fashion) in which materials and products can be recovered, recycled and reused, reducing waste and emissions.

Circularity, for us, is an excellent alternative to the take-consume-butta model thanks to the recover-recycle-reuse model. It adds value by changing waste into materials that can be reintroduced into the value chain.

With the devulcanisation and regeneration processes, the rubber, previously shredded, is brought back to a chemical structure close to that of the starting elastomer so that it can be added to normal compounds for a completely green process, without chemical additives.

Finally, remember not to throw old or broken shoes into unsorted waste. If they are shoes that you no longer want to wear, but that can still be used, sanitise them and hand them over to organisations or communities with social aims that distribute clothes and basic necessities to people with economic difficulties. Otherwise, if they are really broken, bring the shoes you no longer wear to the special ecological islands in your municipality or directly to our shop and we will take care of them as best we can.

The rubber soles can, in special places, be shredded and reduced to granules that will then be compacted to form, for example, elements that make up accident-prevention flooring for outdoor areas intended for children and open-air play or sports activities, such as the urban fitness areas that are becoming increasingly common in Italian cities.
