ILACO S.R.L.

See these fellows handling the mattress? It's easier with an ILACO recycled by-product!ILACO totally proficient gym mattresses!

Known for their quality Gym mattresses, ILACO was worried what to do with the surplus cuts of vinyl left at the end of the manufacturing process.

For years they kept the endless strips of cuts, not liking the idea of throwing them away and the stuff ending in a landfill when it could be more useful somewhere else.

Suddenly, one day, an idea took shape: "Hey, why not design a mattress with the smaller, surplus strips instead of using the more expensive new vinyl?" And thus the economic model was born. The same quality, consistence and, (did we say quality?) toughness of the original mattress product. Way to go!


See the tough SUPER BAG!ILACO SUPER BAG!

Anyway, even after being successful with a cheaper and ecologically sound product (and being happy of finally finding a way of emptying warehouse space of the cumbersome stuff), ILACO still wanted to do something about the even more narrower vinyl cuts. These strips were about 10 inches. "What else could we do with these things?", they asked themselves. And thru experimentation they found amazing uses for the stuff:

When the designers were fed with finding extra uses for the narrow strips, they arranged them on the shape of nooses and when they began tying them to a ceiling beam, somehow, the body bag concept and the nooses stuck together and, voila! the SUPER BAG WAS BORN!

And you should see it! They are tough as nails and I found them useful to do shopping, lug around eighty pound of cardboard to the recycling center, carrying stones and heavy stuff (and sometimes still useful as body bags).
I wish everyone on the net could put a hand on it! And are they cheap! Such a durable item offered at a price of TEN bucks piece, it's a steal! Please E-Mail me if you're interested in distributing it worldwide; I'll put you in contact with these guys.


Another ILACO recycled by-product!ILACO's aerobic matresses!

They're still at it! This update is to inform you that ILACO has added another wonderful recycled by-product to their line of garbage. These incredible mattresses have hundreds of uses besides the one they were intended for. See how easy it is to carry them around! They're foldable! Use them at the beach! Take them for camping nights! They don't slice! They don't dice! (Sorry about that!)

All kidding aside, it's great to see people manufacturing stuff with other stuff that would just sit in a garbage dump and un-rot there for eternity. For this strong plastic fabric just won't go away! It's the same material used in ILACO matresses and the super bags.
