https://www.instagram.com/impact.furnitureIMPACT Furniture is part of Oxfam Belgium. Through its Upcycle Your Office project, it is in the process of developing a catalogue of upcycled office furniture.
The plywood panels are recovered from old office furniture thrown away by local businesses and organisations and subsequently used as a raw material for making new furniture items.
The profits are ploughed back into Oxfam Belgium and help finance projects to fight poverty.
This year took place the third The World Circular Economy Forum (WCEF), beginning Monday 3rd June in Helsinki, Finland. The Forum is organised by SITRA, the Finnish Innovation Fund.
