Bottletop: the 3D Printed Store in London

It is of the utmost importance that you visit Regent Street in London soon. Not just because of the picturesque scenery, fashion and art in the centre of London, but because a 3D printed store has opened its doors. Bottletop’s incredible store features an interior that was 3D printed from 60,000 recycled plastic bottles and 5,000 cans!

Bottletop specialises in the manufacturing of handbags made from bobbin tabs since working with leather goods firm Mulberry. Turning to sustainable materials, Bottletop have opened a store consisting of 3D printed parts from plastic bottles. In addition, they have a KUKA 3D printer on display next to their keychains and jewelry bags.

However, the store isn’t finished yet. Many additional upgrades are planned. “The store will change over time and become a real recycled paradise”, says Oliver Wayman Bottletop co-founder. “There are not many people who are familiar with 3D printing or robotics. If we can show how these technologies can be used to reduce waste in the construction and fashion sectors, then this is a very convincing argument.” Some of the planned upgrades include covering the walls with 3D printed panels to offer customers a more novel shopping experience.
