How to transform creativity into sustainability?

In the search for more sustainable resource management, two key terms frequently arise: recycling and upcycling. Although they both share the goal of reducing waste and promoting reuse, there is an essential difference in their approach, and Mitz embraces this distinction with creative passion.


Recycling is a process that involves taking used products or materials and transforming them into basic materials to create new products. In recycling, products are broken down into their original components and used to make something different, which helps reduce the accumulation of waste and reduce the extraction of natural resources. It is a key strategy to promote sustainability and reduce the environmental footprint.


Upcycling , on the other hand, is a more creative and artistic approach. Instead of breaking down materials into their basic components, upcycling takes existing products or materials and gives them new life, often in a form that surpasses the original product in terms of aesthetic or functional value. The goal is to transform, elevate and improve, rather than simply recycle.


At Mitz we take products and materials that might have been considered waste and give them new purpose, often in the form of beautiful artistic or functional creations. Through upcycling, we transform worn-out belts into stylish wallets or used clothing into stunning fashion accessories. It's a way to unleash creativity and innovation while reducing waste and promoting sustainability.


We understand that recycling and upcycling are two complementary strategies in our commitment to taking care of the planet. Through upcycling, we not only reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, but we also create unique and beautifully renovated products that reflect the essence of creativity and sustainability. It is our way of contributing to a more beautiful and ecological world.
