Ethos

|
The
company’s ethos is to bring beautiful, sustainable
and saleable 100% recycled glass product to the
building industry market. The ambition is to produce
recycled glass products to meet fit-for-purpose
standards comparable for traditional products
used in building, be they stone, ceramic, concrete
or synthetic materials.
We have a vision of today’s waste mountains
being converted into materials, which will clad
the buildings of the future. We see these products
contributing to the sustainabilities and aesthetic
qualities of the 2012 Olympic vision in East London.
The starting point was to make a product, which
had its own intrinsic beauty and qualities that
could be valued for this strength overcoming the
perception, that recycling means inferior. This
was followed by the development of unique methods
of production focused on sustainability with minimal
production waste. eluna
is this unique world-
wide first material available to you today.
Our team of designers, artists and craftspeople
all contribute to the creation of our products.
We produce a standard range of products and undertake
special commissions, working closely with architects
and interior designers to custom make products
for specific design briefs.
eluna
brings together creative innovation and
environmental sustainability. Combining art, science
and technology GBU transforms waste glass to create
functional, visually stunning and durable surfaces
such as tiles, bricks, paviours, work- tops and
cladding products.
eluna is produced
by GBU Limited Liability Partnership, a social
enterprise based in Hackney in the East End of
London, which is an off-shoot of the charity FreeForm
Arts Trust.
