RECYCLED RUBBER
RECYCLED RUBBER FROM END-OF-LIFE TIRES
Alisea’s Recycled Rubber products are 90% recycled end-of-life truck, bus and car tires. Tires, when they can no longer be used as such, can be recycled in many ways. The Alisea collection, for example, uses them to create clipboards, coin trays, cases and key rings. We want these to inspire you because, as always, we have the material, but we create the designs together with you. “In Italy, every year about 5,000 tons of tires are thrown away. This is the equivalent of a volume of more than 3 million cubic meters, or 6 San Siro stadiums filled to the brim.”
RECYCLED RUBBER FROM INNER TUBES
An unusual secondary raw material that is strong and soft at the same time, recycled inner tubes are available in large quantities, as they come from all vehicles on our roads, from bikes to tractors. A very versatile material that can be used as a leather replacement in many cases. It is light and as such can be sewn by hand or machine, like a fabric.

O-RING IN NATURAL RUBBER
The “O-RINGs” are made in Italy, with natural rubber, extracted from the plant, and coloured with natural ingredients.
The “O-RINGs” – hydraulic seals, originally just black – “for the first time” are re-interpreted by Alisea in new colours and also transformed into multi-coloured bracelets to wear.
The most famous type of natural rubber is elastic rubber, which returns to its original shape after being bent. It is made from the latex of various plants of which the best known is the Hevea Brasiliensis, a rubber tree that is native to the Amazon and grows to be about 30 meters high.
Alisea collaborates with the research and development department of a manufacturer of technical rubber for gas applications (for civil, industrial and automotive use). This has allowed us to create the “O-RINGs” made of soft rubber using 90% natural ingredients, including the dyes.
Diameter 60 mm (2.36 in), chord 1.5 mm (0.6 in).
Entirely produced in Italy in accordance with the regulations, they are available in 10 different colors plus black.
Available colors:
Amber (no added colorants), Natural Black, Purple Bordeaux, Pearl white, Magenta, Yellow Sulfur, Light Blue, Gentian Blue, Yellow Green, Pastel Orange, Traffic Red.
The closure system designed and manufactured in Italy by Alisea, allows the interchangeability of the coloured “O-RING” to make sure that everyone can build and decide the colours of their bracelet.
This system can allow the creation of “TAILORED” bracelets that reflect one company’s colours, and can be customized with laser engraving of the customer’s logo.
The “O-RINGs” in natural rubber can be used to close diaries.
The “O-RING” made of natural rubber extracted from the plant are coloured with ingredients of mineral and natural origin.
