Upcycling
Upcycling simply defines the process of giving a new and more upscale life to an old used product or material.
One of the first benefits of upcycling is its positive impact on the environment. Indeed, the principle being to reuse, we avoid creating a new product. This saves on grey energy and raw materials inherent in the manufacturing process. Ucycling is part of the vast movement of the circular economy and reuse.
In addition to the ecological benefits of reuse, upcycling provides the opportunity to create and recreate unique objects. As a result, upcycling can be found in many contexts: at home, in businesses, in art galleries, in associations, and also in fashion.
