Canvus, an Ohio startup, transforms old wind turbine blades—usually disposed of in landfills—into innovative furniture, labeling it "functional art" for public spaces. By repurposing challenging-to-recycle fiberglass blades, the company promotes sustainability. Their creations, including benches and picnic table sets, incorporate various reclaimed materials like recycled aluminum, rubber from tires and shoes, post-consumer carpeting, and rice hulls, contributing to waste reduction. Canvus aims to extend the life of wind turbine components and make environmentally conscious design choices.
