Be.e : the first bio-based e-scooter

In a collaborative effort with InHolland, NPSP composites and Van.Eko, Waarmakers designed the Be.e; the first bio-based e-scooter. The Be.e has a monocoque body; a unique construction in which the object’s external skin supports the load, similar to an eggshell, eliminating the need for a frame and the usual numerous plastic panels. This structural engineering feat is made from flax and bio-resin, extremely sustainable, lightweight and strong.

Waarmakers are responsible for the overall design of the scooter, it’s monocoque and detailed parts ; a task which challenged, as they say, not only their engineering skills, but also their abilities to design a shape, an image, which communicates it’s unique configuration in an elegant but distinct way. Waarmakers creates designs that bring about a positive social impact, designs that materialise an ideology and trigger specific human behaviour.
