• Design: Open standard for self-tailoring the infinite loop (textile wrap)

  The world’s first class ideas the more they are copied the better! So, if you want and you know how, you can sew your own InfinitLoop following the pattern and the instructions available on the web. For a very cheap amount we send you the unique identification label which allows you to take advantage of the InfinitLoop functionalities. This label with QR Code will allow you to trace the itinerary and use of your own InfinitLoop and find out how much waste have been avoided and which gifts have been wrapped with it, and follow its path around the world.

• Inclusión social: Social inclusion through employment

  Each InfinitLoop will be produced by social organizations which employ people with special needs. More than 50 % of the InfinitLoop price will finance activities of these organizations. The reason is that Tarpuna Cooperative’s mission is to generate social value through viable and sustainable projects. We think that social inclusion is a top priority. In this first stage we are working with la Asociación Estel Tapia, in the Raval quarter in Barcelona (www.esteltapia.org/).

• Services: Sustainable products and services promotion

  InfinitLoop is intended to facilitate the purchase of smart gifts. We consider smart gifts those that are not compulsive, have a high added value and are socially transforming, those that represent ethical criteria of social and environmental sustainability, and if possible are creative, educational and shared. Infinite loop is, therefore, a channel to raise awareness of initiatives that may have difficulty reaching the market through traditional channels.

What if we tracked where the wrapping paper has been and what is has wrapped? <br /> <br /> InfinitLoop is an integral 2.0 system for smart gifts promoted and produced with a social purpose. <br /> <br /> Although everybody likes to make presents and enjoys making other people happy who has not found it hard at any given time to come up with good ideas, or to agree with other people what to give away, or to decide how to originally wrap up gifts. <br /> <br /> InfinitLoop helps to overcome all these: <br /> <br /> >> It helps you TO WRAP UP a gift without WASTE using an innovative wrapping system. <br /> <br /> >> It gives you SMART IDEAS for meaningful gifts that avoid the stress of last minute purchases. <br /> <br /> >> It helps you to save TIME providing ideas when you are planning and making gifts with other people. <br /> <br /> >> And more importantly: its production promotes SOCIAL INCLUSION of the people more heavily affected by the current crisis. </div> <div id="gallery-image-"style="display:block;"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> </div> <div> <h4>Main features</h4> InfinitLoop is a system based on two components: <br /> <br /> 1) Reusable wrap of high quality cloth with a unique identification code. <br /> <br /> 2) A 2.0 application for smartphones and a web site to locate and geographically place the wraps. </div> <div> <h4>Why this is important</h4> InfinitLoop is a solution to wrap up gifts and to locate the wrap around the world. <br /> <br /> It wants to harness the infinite positive energy generated from the happiness of giving to the people we love and so transform our purchasing habits for sustainability. <br /> <br /> In the project conception an important objective is social inclusion achieved by the production of the InfinitLoop by institutions of social integration and employment of people with special needs. </div> <div> </div> <br /> <div> <h4>Goals of the crowdfunding campaign</h4> GENERAL OBJETIVES <br /> <br /> A) Encourage responsible consumption with ecologic criteria, promoting gift ideas that help sustainability and social development.<br /> <br /> B) Generate an economic activity that promotes social and occupational integration through the participation of existing social institutions.<br /> <br /> <br /> SPECIFIC OBJETIVES <br /> <br /> 1) Launch the product Reusable Wrap to the market produced by people in the process of social inclusion. <br /> <br /> 2) Develop a 2.0 application for smartphones and web to promote smart gifts and to facilitate users the selection of meaningful gifts. </div> <div> <h4>Team and experience</h4> From the "HortUrba" creators, now the "InfinitLoop" :) <br /> <br /> A group of friends with different backgrounds and a common interest for social and environmental causes founded "Tarpuna iniciativas sostenibles SL"(Tarpuna sustainable initiatives SL). <br /> <br /> Our most relevant product to date is the urban orchard (www.horturba.com) being pioneers in ecological agriculture in balconies and terraces of a lot of cities. <br /> We have now new challenges and to develop them we have turned into a social nonprofit organization. <br /> <br /> The Tarpuna Cooperative for Sustainable Initiatives promotes this project and spends some of their own funds (coming from other business lines) to consolidate it. </div> </div> <div> <div>Publish this widget</div> <div> Publish wall of backers <div style="display: none;"> <div id="wof-embed-code" style="px;px;"> <h2>Publish this widget</h2> <div id="widget-code"> <div>Embedding Code</div> <textarea id="code"><br frameborder="0" "100%" src="/img/spacer.gif"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div style="px;"><h2>WALL OF BACKERSgoteo.org</h2><div><div><h3>159</h3><p>Co-financiers</p></div><div><h3>€ 8.380</h3><p>Remaining 0 days</p></div><div><div><p><img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <br />By: Didacfb</p></div><div><h3>INFINIT Loop</h3><p>Integral 2.0 system for smart gifts - Give love, not waste!</p></div></div><div><p>Join the group of people who are making this project possible!</p>Follow</div><div></div><img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img alt="spacer" src="/img/spacer.gif"> <img src="//data.g"> </div></div></div></div></div> <div style="position:absolute;
