Turning Waste Up to 11

We're not your typical recycling business.

Born from a love of rock music, festival culture, and a belief that waste can become something extraordinary, we give discarded denim and glass a second chance to take centre stage. What others see as waste, we see as raw material with a story to tell.

Just like a great festival brings people together and creates something unforgettable, we're bringing recycled materials together in new and innovative ways to create sustainable products with character, purpose, and attitude.

Our Story

Every pair of worn-out jeans has lived a life. Every glass bottle has been part of a celebration. Instead of ending up in landfill, we transform these materials into products that continue their journey. Inspired by the creativity, freedom, and energy of the live music scene, our business was built on the idea that sustainability doesn't have to be dull. It can be bold, creative, and full of personality.

What We Do

We source and process recycled denim and glass, turning them into high-quality sustainable materials and products that help reduce waste and conserve valuable resources. Our approach combines environmental responsibility with a rebellious spirit—proving that doing the right thing for the planet can still be exciting, innovative, and authentic

Our Mission

To challenge the throwaway culture and give valuable materials an encore. By diverting denim and glass from landfill, we help reduce environmental impact while creating products that support a more circular economy. Every product we make represents a commitment to sustainability, creativity, and a future where waste is viewed as opportunity.

The Festival Spirit

Festivals leave lasting memories, not lasting waste. The festival community has always embraced creativity, self-expression, and collective action. Those values are at the core of everything we do. We believe in building a business that celebrates individuality, respects the environment, and inspires positive change. Whether it's the spirit of a muddy field, a legendary guitar riff, or the energy of thousands of people coming together, that sense of possibility drives our work every day

Join the Movement

The world doesn't need more waste. It needs more imagination. By choosing recycled denim and glass products, you're helping keep valuable materials in circulation and supporting a more sustainable future. Together, we can reduce waste, rethink resources, and prove that sustainability can rock just as hard as anything else.

Emma FitzGerald

I have always been drawn to the idea that something old can become something beautiful again. My handmade bags combine sustainability with individuality. No two pieces are ever exactly alike, and I enjoy letting the materials guide the creative process.

I also create fused glass art, fascinated by the way colour, texture, and light interact during the firing process. Watching separate pieces of glass transform into a finished work is one of the most rewarding parts of my practice.

Through both my handbags and fused glass creations, I aim to give new purpose to reclaimed materials while creating unique pieces that bring beauty, function, and joy into everyday life.
