Some general product information

Handcrafted. Recycled. Empowering.
Each of our unique pieces — whether a plant pot, bowl, pen holder or decorative object — is made from 100% recycled plastic collected in Halabja, in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, through our ShredUp project. What began as a small initiative has grown into a local recycling ecosystem that provides environmental impact, skill training, and stable income opportunities for a young team on the ground.

Every item is handcrafted in small batches using durable, high-quality recycled plastic. The material is exceptionally robust, weather-resistant and long-lasting — far stronger than most people expect from recycled plastics. Because we work with mixed and colour-sorted waste streams, every product naturally becomes a one-of-a-kind piece, with its own marbling, patterning and story.

By purchasing one of these unique items, you directly support the continued operation of ShredUp:

  • maintaining our recycling infrastructure
  • expanding machines and technical capacity
  • financing fair, local salaries
  • enabling workshops and community education
  • and scaling our environmental and social impact in the region.

All profits are reinvested into the project. Your purchase is not only a beautiful object for your home — it is a contribution to cleaner cities, empowered communities, and a stronger recycling culture in the Middle East.
