Resource efficiency and circular economy for your company

Upcycling in pursuit of your sustainability goals offers far-reaching benefits for your business. It's far more than just a trend - it's a strategy for reducing waste and creating a sustainable business model. By transforming seemingly unusable materials into valuable products, upcycling contributes significantly to waste reduction and CO2 reduction.

In view of the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), upcycling is becoming a key tool for assuming social and environmental responsibility. It enables your company to avoid waste and at the same time increase the value of your resources. This is a central starting point for reducing costs and protecting the environment.

Upcycling allows resources to be used more efficiently as existing materials are incorporated into the value creation process. This reduces the need for new raw materials and therefore lowers procurement costs. At the same time, avoiding waste minimizes disposal costs and reduces your company's ecological footprint.

Overall, upcycling can not only reduce your company's environmental impact, but also drive your sustainability goals. It provides an opportunity to lead your business towards resource efficiency and circular economy, allowing you to make not only the environment but also your own business sustainable.

Upcycling projects tell a story of resource efficiency, creativity and environmental protection. They show how new, valuable products are created from seemingly unusable materials. These are stories that are helpful for your external communication and can inspire the public and your stakeholders.

Upcycling makes your corporate sustainability efforts tangible and tangible. It shows that you not only talk about environmental responsibility, but also actively put it into practice. Your projects serve as living proof of your commitment to a sustainable future.

Upcycling allows you to turn your sustainability goals into reality while making them tangible for your stakeholders. It allows you to retell your company story and spread your message of sustainability in an impactful way.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who are we and what does MOOT or MOOTstudio do?

MOOT is the fashion label of MOOT Upcycling GmbH, founded in 2020, and has since become a pioneer in the German upcycling industry. MOOTstudio is the business client branch of MOOT Upcycling GmbH, where we leverage MOOT's expertise and infrastructure to help companies produce sustainable promotional items and corporate fashion.

What types of materials does MOOTstudio accept for upcycling?

There are no limits to creativity: From textiles with old logos to belts, foils, rubber hoses, and leather scraps, we've already worked with a lot of things and are always looking for new materials to experiment with. So don't hesitate to contact us. If you don't have your own materials, we can draw on MOOT Upcycling GmbH's vast inventory of textiles to create your promotional items.

Can MOOT produce custom-made promotional items according to our specifications?

Creating upcycled products is a teamwork and collaborative process. Perhaps you only have the materials but no concrete idea yet. Together, we'll explore what's feasible and find the perfect balance between budget, functionality, and design.

How long does the upcycling process at MOOTstudio usually take?

It all depends on the complexity of the product. We can deliver printed pillowcase bags in two weeks, while a completely new product can take up to six weeks to develop. The best thing to do is simply ask, and we'll work together to create a project plan.

How sustainable are MOOTstudio products?

Upcycling is the most environmentally friendly form of production, as no new materials are used and existing ones are saved from disposal. We therefore offer by far the most sustainable advertising materials for your company.

How much do upcycled advertising materials cost?

Since we develop unique pieces, we don't have price lists; instead, each product is priced individually. Of course, we incur additional costs in project management and product development, but we don't charge for the raw materials. On average, we're no more expensive than other (supposedly) sustainable advertising materials.

Does MOOTstudio also offer consulting services for sustainable advertising strategies?

Part of our vision is to help companies operate more sustainably. That's why we're happy to support you with advertising strategies and help you reduce your emissions.
