When The Paris Olympics Committed To Sustainability, They Turned To Recycled Plastics
Usually, the podium is constructed of prefabricated concrete and then topped by multiple wood, concrete, or metal framed stories. At this year’s Olympics, however, the silver-colored podiums are constructed of 100% recycled plastic. It’s part of a larger commitment by the Paris Olympic Committee to sustainability like has never been seen before in the Games.
To create the panels used for the 68 silver-hued Olympic victory podiums, Le Pavé used 18 metric tons of recycled plastic and plastic foam food containers.
