Good material doesn't have to be new


There is still so much you can do with your leftover material!

We upcycle your waste and convert it into new, tailor-made upcycle products and upcycle promotional gifts that act as an accelerator for circular thinking within your organization.


From key ring or shopper to bean bag or lampshade.

The possibilities are endless with our Upcycle Lab!

Upcyling Impact


With our Upcycle Lab concept we give thousands of kilos of textiles a second chance. We set a standard for upcycling by not only saving raw materials from incineration but also by drastically reducing water and CO2 emissions. Your 'waste' becomes our raw material for innovation and creativity.


In our local and social sewing workshop we transform residual materials into unique brand translators with a story that you can use as a corporate gift, merchandise product or new item in your store.

TOGETHER WE COME UP WITH SOMETHING UNIQUE

Focus on inclusive work, COâ‚‚ savings and waste reduction

As a circular partner, we develop and produce unique upcycle products with a focus on inclusivity, CO2 savings and waste reduction.


In our own workshop 'Makers Lokaal' and together with various social chain partners we create these upcycle products. When our company was founded, (work) pleasure and offering opportunities were paramount. That is why we work with 'meemakers': skilled people who sometimes need an extra helping hand.


Our approach connects passionate and skilled people to our company, and promotes opportunities, personal development and job satisfaction. A win-win situation for everyone.

Transparency

Make your impact visible with our impact label.

We are happy to make our creative think tanks and social production facilities available, to develop together the upcycle promotional gift that exactly matches your circular objective. In doing so, we make Insightful what the social, ecological and economic impact has been.

Besides the fact that these products support the circular transition goals of your company, this is a unique opportunity to create extra involvement and awareness with your target group. We translate the results and impact into a tailor-made web page, available via an accompanying QR code. A unique way to make the story of your brand, the story of the product and its impact visible.

Benefits of upcycling

Upcycling not only reuses the raw material, but the entire product. This prevents valuable components from ending up in the trash and gives the 'old' material even more value. As a result, fewer materials need to be purchased, fewer raw materials are used and therefore less COâ‚‚ is emitted. This makes upcycling one of the most sustainable solutions for your waste material.

 

The main advantages

  • High value retention of material and labor
  • Design strategy: repurpose (No. 8 up the 10-R ladder)
  • Higher COâ‚‚ impact than recycling
  • Already possible from 1 piece
  • Unique product & collector's item - every product is different

From waste to a unique and sustainable story...

In short, with our Upcycle Lab we give your residual materials a new destination as an environmentally friendly, circular and unique upcycle business gift. An original and creative gift that carries a positive message.


Upcycling is custom work. Every material is different and requires creative solutions. Do you have a great idea for your old textiles or residual materials? We are happy to think along with you. Together we develop an original custom product that fully meets your wishes.



No waste of your own, but would you like an upcycle product?


No problem. Our circular partners and customers have enough waste streams left that they are happy to make available to other companies. This way it is still possible to realize your own custom upcycle product.
