Biography
Kieran founded Revive Innovations three weeks after graduating from Product Design at UWE Bristol.
Whilst at UWE Bristol, he began an experimental sustainable design project investigating reprocessing 'non-recyclable' wastes. Over the last two years this project has formed into a burgeoning sustainable design business that has achieved a number of awards including a National Innovators Award from InnovateUK.
RE-CD is Revive Innovations current project, working to create beautiful circular economy materials and products made from Recycled CDs and DVDs whilst improving CD recycling infrastructure. Revive has recycled over 200,000 CDs so far and their products have been exhibited at numerous London design festivals and exhibitions.
Revive's vision is to challenge consumer attitudes towards sustainable design, and prove that recycled products can be as beautiful and functional as those made from virgin materials.
You can follow him on Linktree and LinkedIn.
