The upcycle

Upcycled products, that is what we design. By doing this we created an Upcycle shop full of recycled gifts for you to explore. If you can imagine it, it can be done. We exist to create things of enduring value. We are driven by big dreams, yet understand the power of starting small.

Local. Together.  Always aiming for social impact in the process of our Upcycling and recycling adventures. Some call us artists, dreamers or creators. We prefer to be seen as makers. Optimistic. Cheeky. Colourful. And in love with the endless opportunity that resides in creativity.

Our source of inspiration? Waste… Yup. Discarded stuff. Useless materials the world gave up on. Where others see waste, we see food for creativity. An ocean of opportunities. With this we design Recycled design products and Upcycled gifts for you to enjoy!

By transforming used materials into functional design products, we help and stimulate people to look different at the resources around us, while contributing to a circular economy together.

The ultimate goal? Make waste extinct. After all, it is nothing else than material in the wrong place.

OUR UPCYCLE PARTNERS

Because we also believe in social impact

All The upcycle gifts and products that we can’t make ourselves are produced by social workshops. These are workplaces where people with a disadvantage to the workforce get back to it and reintegrate into society. Proudly they produce sustainable products for you!
