Singapore’s first and largest sustainability-led retail festival (GREEN-HOUSE) returned on 8–9 November 2025 for its fourth and most ambitious edition yet, with Mercedes-Benz presenting an immersive showcase that redefines innovation through purpose.
Across two days, GREEN-HOUSE 2025 brought together over 80 partners and brands, nine immersive zones and more than 40 free workshops and activities.
A headline showcase by Mercedes-Benz unveiled the brand’s first-ever life-sized 3D-printed G-Class, created from 40,531 discarded PET bottles (580kg of recycled plastic) by Hong Kong studio Editecture.
Titled “Living Form, Lasting Purpose”, the showcase threads sustainability through the lens of luxury. Under the evolving theme “Engineered for Impact”, this year’s activation leans harder into outcomes: what actually changes when design, technology and responsibility share the same brief?
“At Mercedes-Benz, excitement is about purpose. GREEN-HOUSE 2025 is where we come together with the community to show how luxury can evolve responsibly. Through regenerative design and collaborations with like-minded partners, we’re driving the future. Together, we are crafting iconic experiences that honour innovation, sustainability and the people who make it possible.”
Darren Ng, Head of Customer Excitement, Mercedes-Benz Singapore
The brand’s presence unfolds across three key touchpoints:
Living Form, Lasting Purpose
In collaboration with Editecture, the newly launched electric G-Class is reimagined as a life-sized silhouette built from 40,531 discarded plastic bottles.
From afar, it reads as an homage to a design icon journeying into its electric future. Step closer, and the illusion shifts: the “car” reveals itself as a modular system of chairs, shelves and lamps engineered for strength, easy disassembly and repeated reuse.
From Hand to Coral
Crafted with local design studio WASTD, each BYO bottle holder is made from discarded plastic bottles collected in Singapore and transformed into a durable, refined accessory.
Personalised initials turn every holder into a small emblem of responsibility. With 100% of proceeds directed to the Garden City Fund’s 100K Corals Initiative, each piece carries a ripple effect from hand to reef.
What It Takes to Evolve
Hosted by radio personality Rosalyn Lee, a short film traces the journey from plastic waste to purposeful design, from beaches to classrooms and design studios to city hubs.
Along the way, Rozz meets changemakers working alongside Mercedes-Benz to reimagine the future of plastic, making the case that real evolution begins when communities act in concert rather than isolation.
