The circular solution "Steps for the Future" (PASSOS DE FUTURO) was created to give new life to waste from the production of rubber soles, which would otherwise be discarded.
We combine innovation and sustainability to reintegrate these materials into production processes, reducing waste and promoting a more efficient and responsible rubber sole manufacturing industry.
WHAT MOVES US
PROBLEM
The rubber sole manufacturing industry generates significant waste, which often ends up in landfill.
MISSION
Empowering companies in the sector to reincorporate their own sole production waste, after transforming it into new raw materials, closing the cycle within their own production lines.
VISION
Contribute to an increasingly circular footwear sector by reducing the ecological footprint and increasing resource efficiency.
HOW DOES IT WORK ?
Closing the cycle within the rubber sole production industry itself is the goal of the circular solution PASSOS DE FUTURO, which transforms sole waste into raw materials ready to return to production lines.
Sole waste is collected at the production units.
COLLECTION
1
They undergo dimensional reduction processes, tailored to the needs of partner industry.
TRANSFORMATION
2
The resulting material is returned to the partner's premises and reintegrated into the production of soles.
REINTEGRATION
3
The model allows for different levels of reuse according to technical specifications.
FLEXIBILITY
4
WHY TAKE PART
Waste returns to the production cycle, reducing waste.
