AUTHOR-SUPPLIED ABSTRACT: Abstract: this thesis explores the transformation of old bicycle tires into protective equipment for a specific user group - couriers without bicycle training - who need protection against possible accidents under stressful working conditions. The research aims to understand the relationship of waste tires with the ecosystem, the problems faced by couriers, and how waste tires can be repurposed into protective equipment. By addressing these questions, the thesis presents a product made from bicycle tires that meets the couriers' needs. The study seeks to provide a sustainable and eco-friendly solution to the problem of waste tires while benefiting the targeted user group. Keywords: old bicycle tires, protective equipment, waste tires, couriers, sustainability, ecosystem, repurposing, eco-friendly solution.
