Expo Uruguay Sostenible
Crocus stood out at one of the country’s most important sustainability events.
We were invited by the Ministry to take part in this initiative that brings together, each year,
projects and ventures committed to sustainable development, showcasing our evolution
from early ideas to our most recent technical validations.
Year 2025_ Technical Validations









For this edition, we already had the results of technical validations that proved our material’s effectiveness as thermal insulation, and its resistance to fire and moisture-related fungi. This allowed us to present the true potential of our development with greater confidence.
Throughout the Expo days, from Thursday at 9:30 a.m. to Sunday at 7:00 p.m., we kept a small brick sample submerged in water to test its resistance, confirming it showed no change or deterioration.
As every year, these were days full of enriching experiences, new opportunities during the business round, and the joy of building friendships that join us along the way.
We also shared with the public technical insights and specific applications of the material, generating interest and dialogue that encourage us to keep innovating.
Year 2024_ From Crafts to Technical
One year later, our participation in the Expo took a more scientific and professional turn.
Thanks to the support from VIN23, which funded our research, we were immersed in the technical validation of our material, exploring its potential as an acoustic and thermal panel.
In this edition, our stand displayed a timeline from 2021 to the present, featuring products, lab samples, and various finishes of the recycled material.
We also proudly showcased the support signs from ANDE and ANII, which positioned us differently within the fair.
This time we didn’t host workshops, but we did appear in the media and had the chance to speak with key figures, including the acting president, presenting Crocus from a more technical angle and with a focus on applied innovation.









Year 2023_ Our First Steps









In this first experience, we presented our lamps, accessories, and the coffee maker, along with the recycled material we were developing.
It was during this event that we discovered the true potential of our find, opening new possibilities for growth.
Our participation allowed us to join the business round, where we connected with allies who later became key to our journey.
Additionally, we offered a workshop for children, where they created textile appliqués accompanied by their guardians, in an activity that blended creativity and design.
This experience helped us showcase ourselves to the public and envision a future with greater impact.
