  Founded in 2003 ashortwalk is an award winning eco product design company on the north coast of Cornwall in the UK. All ashortwalk products are made from waste materials, designed to last and are 100% recyclable when they reach their end of life - hence the recent rebrand to Circular&Co! ashortwalk values are rooted in closed loop design that sees today’s waste as tomorrow’s product - part of the circular economy, using the materials we already have time and time again by recycling, redesigning, reusing and reducing waste. ashortwalk helps a wide range of companies, organisations and well known brands to turn their waste materials into new products whilst designing and manufacturing our own range of Circular products.

  ashortwalk is a product design and manufacturing company based near Truro, Cornwall. Started in 2003 by Dan who left his previous job as a product designer/inventor at Dyson and moved to Cornwall in order to realise a long-held desire: to set up a business, and live, 'ashortwalk' from the sea. With the launch of the World's first reusable coffee cup made using recycled single use paper coffee cups this year, we’ve come a long way in 15 years, from our initial range of tide and time clocks. We now offer a range of pioneering ECO products...from house numbers and house signs made from recycled plant pots, to unique tableware from recycled paper, all sold throughout the world via some very respected retail brands. We also specialise in making corporate promotional products from a company's own waste streams. The key to staying competitive in the global market from a shed in Cornwall has always been to design and manufacture unique, functional products. We are no longer in a shed, but our philosophy is still the same...and most importantly we are ashortwalk from the beach...just!
