Day of Useless Knowledge

In honor of September 1, the Creative manufactory P.T.H will hold in New Holland a children's holiday entitled the Day of Useless Knowledge. The island will turn into a large research center, where each laboratory-station will teach the most useless skills that, despite its impracticality, will bring a lot of joy to the guests of the festival. Chatology, circustry, wingology, beastology, hatology, wonderology and many other stations are waiting for entertaining the island’s young visitors that day. At 16:00 the culmination of the holiday will be a monument to the most useless animal crackers and hooting.

In partnership with Frosch

Like any other social project, we need the help of commercial partners.

When choosing with whom to collaborate, we considered a lot of offers, until we saw the letter from the brand Frosch. In 1986, Frosch has released the first in the history phosphate-free detergent, and takes into account the interests of the environment in its very production, without forgetting such details as the consumption of water and energy.

In the age of the continents drifting in an ocean of plastic waste, brands such as Frosch are along the way!
