UPCYCLING: A NATURE AND AN INSTINCT

fleur phelipeau

L'upcycling

Look for ideas every day.

Sometimes weird or funny ideas.

Because upcycling is not intended to be a cumbersome process but a game.

Reduce our waste and reuse our containers, yes but not only that.


At D-LAB, upcycling means asking everywhere, as soon as possible,

how to perpetuate the cycle,
how to give new life,
how to create and recreate,
even from very little.


These are the candles that the factory opposite pours for you, in the bottles that you send back to us.

These small grids which will allow you to transform your empty containers into salt shakers or spice pots.


These old sheets from which we make our protective caps and overshoes, at the factory.


These chickens that we feed every day with food leftovers from our teams.

And their eggs that we cook for our guests.


Upcycling at D-LAB is a game, it’s nature and an instinct.


Cherish every object,

Challenge yourself,

Thinking in an artisanal way,

To give birth to the unexpected and poetry, sometimes.



It’s an extra soul.
