A bird feeder with a clean, modern silhouette – made entirely from 100% recycled plastic.

Designed in Helsinki by Mika & Julie Tolvanen, the Bird Silo is the result of years spent watching small songbirds from their dining-room window, refining the shape until it suited the birds’ natural, vertical feeding style. Lift the top cone, pour in seed, and the silo fills from the bottom up – simple, intuitive, and satisfying in that “why aren’t all feeders like this?” way.

Studio Tolvanen calls it a functional sculpture – a feeder whose only impact on nature is feeding the birds.

Design for a circular economy
We love the subtle flecks in our plastic that tell a story about its recycled beginnings. The raw material for our polypropylene comes from 100% upcycled post-consumer waste plastic containers and washing machine parts. The raw material for our recycled polyester rope comes from 100% upcycled post-consumer waste plastic bottles, and it is colored using a water-free dying process. Also, even though our bird feeder isn’t a toy, we decided the stainless steel hardware should be certified ‘safe for toys’ anyway. The feeder is designed for easy assembly and disassembly. All the parts can be separated and recycled - starting the circle of reuse again. It wouldn’t make sense to deliver our 100% recycled plastic bird feeder in a single-use plastic package, so we designed a box that is folded entirely from cardboard. It requires no glue, so it’s easy to unfold. We’re counting on you to recycle it!

CARE

Feeder care and bird hygiene
Hand wash Bird Silo with soap and warm water and replace food often, especially during wet or humid weather to avoid bacteria that might harm your feathered guests. In severe wet weather, it is recommended to fill bird feeders with only enough food that will be consumed in a couple days.
