How to Upcycle?
Corporates Donation
Sales and marketing of upcycling products also builds a positive brand image to enterprises involved. Corporate Social responsibility is elevated from merely as a form of funding to love and care for the society by reducing wastage and introducing more people with disabilities to social inclusion
Public Interaction
Besides opening our design studio and production house to public, Upcycling Centre also provides outreach educational service to schools, elderly care centre, child and youth service centre, integrated family service centre etc. Workshops and pop up stores serve as a platform for the public to be engaged in upcycling process and waste reduction as well as social inclusion for people with disabilities
Members Capability
The involvement of people with disabilities brings “Upcycling” a true upthrust. It means much more than just job vacancies for social inclusion. They bring new life to recycled materials by showing their abilities and in turn re-position themselves as contributors to the society
Designers Creativity
Upcycling Centre cultivates a new concept of design. Throughout the design process, our designers work with the people with disabilities closely – not only on production but also collect their feedback and suggestions, so that the final products reveal talents and creativity of people with disabilities
