Ghanaian Entrepreneur Transforms Waste By Using Recycled Car Tyres
To Create Household Furniture

Waste is the new gold. This young Ghanaian entrepreneur is helping transform waste in Accra, Ghana into household furniture.

Jeffrey Kwabena Yeboah, founder of Ripples Interior uses recycled car tyres to make brand new furniture.

He started as part time while he was still in the university. After graduating, Yeboah decided to start his own business as part of his efforts to educate people about waste management.

The unique concept of Ripples Interior lies in the ability to use damaged car tyres, locally made jute ropes and pieces of African prints to produce products such as wall mirrors, a variety of tables and other types of furniture.

Through this sustainable business model and with a strong partnership with automobile companies, civic organizations, green businesses and private individuals.

Ripple Interior hope to put an end to the improper disposal of car tyres such as burning and the dumping in water bodies and drains.
