New Products Developed with Monmade
During Green Leap, Margaret sought to deepen SPACAPAN’s sustainability by pursuing a lighting product rooted in regional sustainability. While she is conscious of the environmental and health impacts of her blown-glass processes, Margaret enhanced the sustainability of her products by using 100% upcycled glass components with Reilluminate. Glass bottles are cut, ground, and then polished to create each pendant shade. Integrating glass that does not need to be reshaped with heat further reduces SPACAPAN’s energy consumption. The shade glass component (only) is now offers a Declare label.

“I want to make sure I am approaching sustainability holistically. In addition to developing a product that meets a handful of sustainable criteria, I would like to make sure the rest of my business is well-informed and is pointed in the right direction to do the same. I want to think about sourcing, shipping, labor, manufacturing, local impacts, and scalability.”
