Cycle Blender
Cycle Blender is a sustainable blender designed for a new circular economy based in deconstruction.
Cycle Blender aims to fit into a new circular economy. Designed it to be durable and reparable in order to have an extend life, the components are recyclable.
A metal shell of the blender is an exoskeleton: a support for fixing the components. The motor is reversible attached to this shell. Underneath the product, the wire reel is also used as a handle to remove the base and access the inside of the unit.
The power cable disconnects at the same time that the base is removed to ensure the safety of users. Once the base under the blender is removed, the technical components appear to the user in a legible manner being accessible the most fragile components: the motor, the electronic card and the connections. Wire connections are reversible with spring terminal blocks and color code to remember their order. A QR code opens an interactive platform where users can diagnose the problem of their device, repair it through video tutorials and access spare parts.
