‘Feel the Peel’ Orange Juicer Makes Cups from Peels

‘Feel the Peel’ Orange Juicer Makes Cups from Peels

We bring you the world’s most ornate orange juice machine that looks like a massive mechanical citrus tree. This one happens to deliver more than sweet Vitamin C and just so happens to make its own beverage cups from the used peels. The huge wire canopy/rack sends the 1,500 oranges who reloads this thing, anyway?) for juicing and uses the peels in a collector where they go through a process that turns them into bioplastic, recyclable cups via a 3D printer. The unique machine was designed by Carlo Ratti Associati (CRA), and they plan to move forward using some of the same techniques to create clothing from the peels. It’s a brilliant idea that provides fresh juice, minimizes waste, and embodies real creativity and environmental consciousness.
