About upcycling

www.upcycling.co.uk

Upcycling is something we can do to help the planet become more sustainable by reusing unwanted items by turning them into new products. This in turn means we can reduce the use of raw materials and the energy used in the manufacturing of raw materials.

Environmentally it is great… but, just as important is it can be fun and give you more unique products.

Upcycling is becoming increasingly popular among groups and individuals concerned about climate change. Recycling is great but it requires energy and resources to collect, sort and process unwanted items and waste.

Upcycling is an even greener way of recycling – you find a new purpose for your unwanted items before you chuck them away
