Katie Cordrey — April 20, 2010 — Eco
The Captivate light by Luladot repurposes plastic bottle tops and caps for use in ambient lighting. By using different colored bottle caps, the user can change the color and pattern of the light. Bottle cap lamps encourage plastic bottle recycling in the UK where only 5.5% of all plastic bottles are recycled.
Captivate bottle cap lamps are sold with approximately fifty caps, but it takes more to completely cover the light, so instead of throwing the caps into the landfill, they can be put to work on the bottle top lamp.
