Furniture from waste exhibited in Aarhus

The finale of 12 Designs for Circularity: tangible, physical circular solutions made from waste.

On June 3rd, we celebrated the grand finale of the 12 Designs for Circularity project with a vernissage showcasing furniture and interior designs made from New Waste materials.

The project includes 21 of THE UPCYCL’s member companies.

We’ve matched design companies with continuous waste streams – cross-industry matches where waste always changes sectors.

All the designs in the project are made from industrial waste materials – New Waste – sourced by THE UPCYCL.

Now, the various designs are heading into production and out into the world to live.

The circular collection includes: side tables, lamps, benches, wall shelves, school furniture, and planter boxes.
