Too good to waste.

Good material does not have to be new

re-use your 'waste'

So much can still be done with your waste materials! We upcycle your waste and turn it into new, customized products and sustainable corporate gifts that act as an accelerator for circular thinking within your organization.

upcycle into new design

With upcycling, not only the raw material is reused, but the entire product. This way, you prevent usable parts from ending up in the trash and the "old" material becomes even more valuable. In doing so, we create new opportunities for people from vulnerable target groups through jobs in our repurpose atelier.

circular lifecycle

The result is a one-of-a-kind product that carries the history of the material with it. A sustainable item that tells a unique story and contributes to a circular and inclusive economy, aiming to preserve quality and value in an endless stream.

How we make impact with upcyling

As a circular partner, we create and produce unique and beautiful upcycle objects. Upcycling creates something new and useful from materials that would otherwise be discarded. The ‘unusable’ materials are transformed into something valuable and often even more beautiful than before.



Our upcycle lab is a great solution to reduce your waste stream, save resources, tell a unique story and provide new job opportunities for vulnerable target groups. With this tool we give other companies the opportunity to do sustainable and social business and in doing so have a positive impact on society and the world.

felting your waste stream

Create felt from your textile waste

Is the material no longer beautiful enough to reuse in its entirety? By felting it, we can turn it into a completely new and unique material.

From waste, to a unique and sustainable story...

Upcycled products are made to measure. After all, every material is different, which requires creative solutions. Do you have a great idea of your own for your old textiles or residual materials? We like to think along with you. Together we will develop an original custom product that fully meets your wishes.

Let's get in touch

UPV & Social Retrun

Upcycling can help meet the goals of the UPV legislation.


The new UPV legislation sets ambitious targets for textile recycling and reuse. By 2025, 50% of textiles placed on the market must be recycled or prepared for reuse. This percentage should increase to 75% by 2030.


Upcycling can play an important role in achieving these goals. By upcycling textiles, the material is not destroyed but given a new life. This contributes to the reduction of textile waste and the circular economy.


With every project we issue an independently verified upcycle certificate showing the social hours, how much waste saved from incineration and Co2 savings.

Create transparency

Impact measurement & social return

Our main goals are to reduce, reuse and repurpose. We

advise and design based on the 10-R ladder. The result is CO2 savings, waste reduction, less use of water and energy, social return and creating a local impact.


Besides the fact that these products support your company’s circular transition goals, this is a unique opportunity to create extra commitment and awareness among your target group. We translate the results and impact into a tailor-made webpage (available through a corresponding QR code) with a unique story and product label.

By local makers

We make our upcycle products together with our various partners and social enterprises. An important objective in the creation of our company is (work) fun and giving others the space and opportunity to participate. This is why we work with co-makers. Skilled people who sometimes need just an extra push.


Through this approach, we connect passionate and skilled people to our company and work on opportunities, personal development and (work) pleasure. A win-win situation for everyone.
