The “Beta Box” is open,

After months of contacting, collecting, organizing, sorting, reducing, combining, grouping and packing we have finally delivered our first “Beta Boxes” to our participating classrooms. We are still working to collect more exciting pieces for future boxes. Every “Beta Box” is unique and will vary depending on the donations at that time.

These first “Beta Boxes” included; wallpaper, carpet, textile, lace, plastic straps, cardboard tubes, string, ribbon, wire, wood veneer, window stickers (variety of colors) and most exciting in this pack we have included an amazing assortment of small Plexiglas pieces from a company that works with Plexiglas and gave us all the pieces they cut out for holes.We are still able to have further partner classrooms. If you are interested please sign up here! If you are interested in keeping updated on RE-circle activities please contact us here!

Welcome,

We are proud to introduce you to the REcircle Creative REuse Center. REcircle is an initiative promoting the reuse of industrial waste materials for creative projects. We have been creating relationships with manufactures and collecting materials for nearly one year and we are ready to launch our first trial project called:

“The Beta Box”

The “Beta Box” will bring these amazing materials into schools. What we propose is a trial project with ten classrooms in the Brussels region. These ten classrooms will receive a box of materials in January 2008. Each crate will include a variety of clean, safe and open-ended materials. The benefits of these materials for children in a classroom setting are unlimited. Classrooms will be chosen on first-come, first-served basis. If you are interested please fill out our member form. If you would just like us to keep you updated on our activities send us your details through our contact form and we will add you to our mailing list.(read more about this project)
