It is true that waste is a major source of negative consequences such as environmental degradation and marine pollution. However, this is only when garbage is dumped in the wrong place, such as shoe litter dropped in the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what else could the garbage possibly be? The Tlejorn Project, which produces a garbage shoe out of waste marine trash converted into useful materials for shoe manufacturing, is best fit to answer this question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marine litter has the potential to be used as a design material.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tlejorn is a project that was established to add value to marine shoe waste. Tlejorn recognizes marine shoe waste as a potential resource for future production. Trash Hero Volunteer Network gathered marine shoe waste to compress and form with extrusion science at Prince of Songkla University’s Department of Rubber and Polymer Technology, where Dr. Natthaphong Nithiuthai, the founder of the Tlejorn Project, teaches, collaborating with the craftsmanship of a housewives’ group in Klong Maning Subdistrict, Mueang District, Pattani Province. Tlejorn recycles marine shoe waste into sandals, generating additional revenue for the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, this clearly proves that the potential benefits of marine shoe litter can be transformed into valuable products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Natthaphong Nithiuthai has previously used a wide range of materials, including rubber wheels, shoes, and plastic bottles, prior to the establishment of the Tlejorn Project, the goal of which is to add value to industrial waste and reduce waste material. It had previously been produced as a rubber floor mat covering the playground before being produced as garbage shoes for this project.<\/p>\n\n\n
