Reppatch, founded in November 2022 by Nil Karul, is a multidisciplinary upcycling art atelier operating in Turkey and Switzerland.
Clean and non-recyclable waste from the production or operational processes of companies are transformed into unique products by our community of artists and women producers. To date, over 10,000 kg of waste has been upcycled. For Reppatch, waste is not a problem; it is the starting point for creative thinking.
The name Reppatch is an abbreviation of our slogan, “Reproduce with Patchwork!”. It takes its name from patchwork, humanity’s oldest method of upcycling, and represents the concept of seeing the value in unwanted/waste products and creatively reassembling their parts to design completely different and unique products.
We upcycle clean, non-recyclable waste generated by companies, transforming it into unique and functional products designed specifically for them.
The resulting products are:
reintroduced into corporate use across different areas.
While transforming companies’ waste into visible, meaningful, and tangible value, we contribute to building sustainability awareness by enabling employees to directly engage with their company’s clean waste.
Today, Reppatch is building an upcycling ecosystem that transforms companies’ sustainability visions into tangible products and experiences, through its community of 3,200+ members, projects carried out in Turkey and Switzerland, and its approach contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 11, 12, and 17.
