Environmental impact being a core focus, NITRIDEDESIGN manufactures its products in environmentally friendly material options, that are non-toxic to the environment, and are either 100% recyclable, or biodegradable. Where possible, NITRIDEDESIGN manufactures its products out of ethically sourced natural resources, or out of recycled materials instead of newly fabricated/sourced materials, and choose manufacturing approaches that reduce environmental impact, and improve efficiency.

WHO IS BEHIND NITRIDEDESIGN

ABOUT THE CREATOR

Nicolas Murdaca is a qualified Engineer, and self taught graphics and 3D-artist. A creative thinker at heart, and a passionate overthinker, Nicolas invests his time in bringing to life his endless ideas. A life-long learner, with no sense of real direction, Nicolas follows his heart and pursues whatever he is passionately drawn to. Whether that is music, game-development, or novel writing. Hardworking and disciplined, Nicolas takes on complex challenges and overcomes overwhelming experiences.

HOW NITRIDEDESIGN BEGAN

THE VISION AND MOTIVE

NITRIDEDESIGN began with an engineering student following their passion. In between university classes, Nicolas invested his time into pursuing hobbies he could complete from his laptop. Whether it was creative writing, game-development, or 3D-art.

Pursuing CAD from an artistic side as opposed to the technical engineering side, Nicolas was able to bring his artistic visions to life. Being a creative driven person, Nicolas was depressed with the structure of Uni work only being focused on learning concepts, and never on applying this knowledge practically or in a creative way.

Wanting to work on a personal engineering project, Nicolas thought about what he could do that wasn't financially expensive since he was financially stressed. Being passionate about Music, Nicolas came up with the idea of developing his own personal guitar pick. Completing research, Nicolas learn't that outsourcing manufacturing was something that was available to the public, through "on-demand" manufacturing approaches. Successfully producing a guitar pick product he was proud of, he then came up with the idea of designing his own ring.

Multiple designs later, Nicolas decided to start his own small business, called NITRIDEDESIGN... Years later, NITRIDEDESIGN has become what it is today.

NITRIDEDESIGN wasn't created to be a revenue making business, it was originally built to be a digital portfolio for Nicolas's to share his product designs with the world. Nicolas's mission is to never stop creating, and to forever continue to share his ideas with the world. Focusing on designing his products to have deep meaning and importance, Nicolas hopes to help people on their complicated personal journey through life, by giving people a symbol they can feel empowered by, or connected too.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING

All of NITRIDEDESIGNS packaging material for shipping is made from natural resources that are both recyclable and biodegradable.

NITRIDEDESIGN Jewellery boxes are engineered for high durability, to minimalise material and manufacturing waste. NITRIDEDESIGN Jewellery boxes are made of Cardboard and Polyurethane foam, being environmentally safe and 100% biodegradable and recyclable.

SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING

NITRIDEDESIGN reduces its impact on the environment by putting extensive research into its material selection process, and manufacturing selection process, to best align with sustainability as its top priority. 

All of NITRIDEDESIGNS manufacturing approaches and material selections align with minimising environmental impact, through using materials that are 100% recyclable, non-hazardous to the environment, and biodegradable, and through using manufacturing processes that produce little to no waste in the process.

STAINLESS STEEL 316L

All NITRIDEDESIGN products manufactured in Stainless Steel 316L are manufactured from 100% recycled Stainless Steel 316L, instead of being made from newly fabricated Stainless Steel. All NITRIDEDESIGN products manufactured in Stainless Steel 316L are also "bulk manufactured" in order to improve production efficiency to minimise environmental impact.

Stainless Steel 316L is also one of the highest quality materials when it comes to corrosion resistance, strength, and durability, making it environmentally friendly through long-lasting design. These rings are also PVD coated (superior to electroplating) to provide even more corrosion and wear resistance to the ring, making them almost indestructible. PVD coating is also environmentally friendly when compared to other options, as it eliminates the need for solvents and hazardous chemical substances.

PLA (Polylactic Acid)

PLA is a type of polyester made from plant starch extracted from either corn, cassava, maize, sugarcane, or sugar beet pulp. These ingredients are fermented into lactic acid, which then forms Polylactic acid. Since PLA is fabricated from natural biological ingredients, it is 100% biodegradable and non-toxic towards the environment, as opposed to all other forms of plastic. All NITRIDEDESIGN products that are manufactured in PLA are also bulk manufactured in order to minimise production waste and minimise environmental impact further.

MEANINGFUL DESIGN

HISTORICAL, CULTURAL, OR SPIRITUAL CONNECTION

NITRIDEDESIGN takes pride in giving meaning to all of its products designs.

That is why NITRIDEDESIGN does extensive background research into historical, cultural and spiritual beliefs, symbols and practices, to come up with product designs that reflect and represent those cultural beliefs and concepts.

Every NITRIDEDESIGN product aims to convey spiritual, cultural, or historical themes and concepts accurately, whilst also providing an artistic touch to the presentation of that concept/theme.

PERSONAL CONNECTION

NITRIDEDESIGN offers its custom design and manufacturing services to customers, so that they can have their dream product idea brought to life. NITRIDEDESIGN works alongside customers through every design step taken, so that feedback can be given and choices can be made by the customer to ensure their product idea comes to life the way they envisioned it.

AESTHETIC DESIGN

INTRICACY COMPLEXITY, AND MINIMALISM
