A sculpture by Hans Arp prompted Michel Charlot's design of the original Happy Bin. While respecting industrial production methods and material properties, the lightweight, irregular shape of the waste paper bin was designed to appear almost to have grown naturally.
The new high-quality recycled material used to make Happy Bin RE stems from Germany's 'Yellow Bag' (Gelber Sack) collection of household waste, from which used plastic packaging is sorted, cleaned, shredded and upcycled back into injection-mouldable polypropylene.
