The green creative!- Creating green solutions from your waste.
Upcycle Zero Waste to Landfill Shop is ready for the gifting season!
The Upcycle zero waste to landfill shop is an important element of the business unit of Upcycle Creative as it showcases the output of products that are created in initiatives set up by Upcycle Creative’s innovation lab.
The Upcycle shop ensures that the cycle of business activity by means of initiatives set up to produce or debrand / sanitise products, further sustains the training and development of projects.
As you know, the standing philosophy at Upcycle Creative is that waste is of great value and that creating a new stream of income by upcycling waste profoundly changes the value of people’s lives that are trained and developed as upcyclers.
The Upcycle zero waste to landfill shop is ready for the festive seasons gifting parade. We have a range of meticulously hand-crafted gifts that have been made by communities with love and at the same time saves the planet!
The Upcycle utility travel bags have impeccable finishing with the inside of the utility bag made from billboard banner fabric, that would usually go straight to landfill as it is considered waste fabric after its primary use. The inside of these utility bags is lined with billboard banner fabric making it super durable and easy to clean. The fabric is waterproof, and it is easy to simply wipe any mess away, making these bags perfect to use for make-up or toiletry bags.
The Upcycle shop also stocks a range of “shoppers” that will ensure you eliminate plastic over this festive season. We also have a selection of beautifully sewn leather pocket pouches exquisitely hand crafted.
The Upcycle shop has a full range of varied sizes and colours of drawstring bags. Drawstring bags are super to package any gift or as a gift itself. Drawstring bags are great to keep your shoes cared for, or for washing underwear or keeping socks together. Drawstring bags are perfect for keeping your dirty laundry together while travelling or for travelling with toys, swimming costumes or jewellery bags.
Talking of bags, we have a range of reusable fresh produce bags that are super for carrying your fruit or vegetables, or bread in. This natural selection of fresh produce bags has inspired the creation of nifty, natural reusable tea bags as well.
The Upcycle zero waste to landfill shop is a delightful shopping experience that will uplift you simply as the nature of the business is to empower people and at the same time, lesson your environmental footprint. The extensive product range of new upcycled valuable goods range from beautifully covered Shwe Shwe journals to hair scrunchies, a range of upcycled jewellery, glass holder candles and pillowcases.
The Upcycle shop has also created a range of planters from billboard banner fabric and planter hangers that have so far been very popular gifting choices. We even have a gift for your precious animals. Our range of vibrant snuffle rugs are available in small and large. If you need a summer range of face masks, we have a range in multiple colours available supported by the masks best selling friend, the buff – perfect for summer!
Training and development are critical in the business of Upcycle and we place much focus on this process as we uphold professional standards of good quality newly produced upcycled products.
