Process of up-cycling.

Up-cycling is the process of taking an existing product, scrap or parts of old products with little value and changing them and creating new products with a value with out much of a cost.
we dispose of a vast amount of products in landfill sites around the uk, just looking at clothing and textiles we throw away about 1.8 tonnes every year, which is about 2 million pints of beer. But up-cycling takes that waste product which has great value and returns it into the market with innovative ideas and designs.

With this idea of taking products back into the market at very low cost and with great design aspects as well as being environmentally 'green', i think that this is something well worth looking into and exploring further and seeing where other people have profited.
