FROM WASTE TO RESOURCE
Educational workshops for schools and training centers.
How do we get young people between the ages of 12 and 17 to care about environmental impact, sustainability or the large amount of waste we generate as a society?
We know we need to reduce waste, but how do we get them to make it their own?
We provide educational workshops in which young people completely change their perception of what is – and what is not – waste. They discover for themselves that what they considered “something that is no longer useful” can be transformed into a useful and beautiful object.
They work with their hands, in a team, and learn to transform used glass bottles into new products designed by themselves. And yes, the result surprises them.
We do these workshops in Catalonia, but also in the rest of Spain, France or wherever we are invited.
Duration: Adaptable (usually 3 hours)
Format: Theoretical-Practical, adapted to age and level.

Creativity and Sustainability
We teach participants to see waste as an opportunity to create something new and valuable.
Practical Skills
Attendees learn glass cutting, sanding and engraving techniques, developing craft skills.
Ecological Awareness
We encourage a positive attitude towards the environment and the reuse of materials.
Teamwork
Our activities promote collaboration and peer learning.
We also offer the shipment of our bottle cutter tool for home use, which includes a video tutorial to learn how to cut bottles step by step from home.
With this tool you can cut round glass bottles of any size.
It consists of a wooden structure, refractory bricks and a resistance, which by connecting it to the mains, allows us to generate a Thermal Shock in the bottle and thus cut it where we want, easily and accurately.
Together with the tool you will receive a private link to a Video Tutorial where we explain, in detail, how to use the tool to achieve a perfect cut.
In addition, you will be able to write us by e-mail to ask your questions during your learning process. We will be there to help you.
