Mediterra Institute x ITTF Foundation<\/h3>\n

World Table Tennis for Health Festival \u2013 Helsingborg, Sweden<\/strong><\/p>\n

The World Table Tennis for Health Festival<\/strong> officially opened in Helsingborg, Sweden<\/strong>, and ran from 26 to 30 November<\/strong>. The Mediterra Institute<\/strong> is proud to have collaborated once again with the ITTF Foundation<\/strong> within the framework of this international event, promoting sustainability through sport and responsible production.<\/p>\n

This collaboration reflects a shared vision: using table tennis as a tool for health, social inclusion, and environmental awareness<\/strong>, while encouraging circular economy principles and sustainable practices.<\/p>\n

Sustainable Mini Racket Keychains – Watch the video here<\/a><\/h3>\n

For the Festival, the Mediterra Institute designed and produced mini table tennis racket keychains<\/strong>, created as symbolic gifts for the participants.
The keychains were manufactured using ABS plastic<\/strong>, following responsible production methods and emphasizing reuse, durability, and environmental awareness<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Each mini racket was carefully produced in our workshop and engraved with event-related information, transforming a simple object into a meaningful souvenir connected to the values of the Festival.<\/p>\n

Informing Through Design<\/h3>\n

In addition to the keychains, participants received an A5 informative leaflet<\/strong> explaining the concept behind the project, the importance of recycling, and the role of sustainable materials in sports-related products.
This approach aimed not only to offer a gift, but also to raise awareness and encourage reflection<\/strong> on sustainability and responsible consumption.<\/p>\n

Circular Thinking in Packaging<\/h3>\n

The complete set was delivered in a wooden box made from reused wood<\/strong>, reinforcing the project\u2019s circular philosophy. From production to packaging, each step followed principles of reuse, minimal waste, and thoughtful design<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A Meaningful Partnership<\/h3>\n

Collaborating with the ITTF Foundation<\/strong> is always an honour for the Mediterra Institute<\/strong>. Their ongoing efforts to combine table tennis, health, social impact, and sustainability<\/strong> strongly align with our mission to develop educational and creative projects rooted in environmental responsibility.<\/p>\n

We are grateful for the trust, collaboration, and positive energy that surrounded this project and look forward to future initiatives that continue to unite sport, people, and sustainability<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
