WHAT WE “REALLY ” OFFER
A CHANCE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
01. Recycle
At Up-fuse we seek to prove that ecologically sound businesses are not far-fetched concepts; we adopt a business model that actually reduces waste through production rather than common opposite.
For us, one’s trash is another’s fabric!

02. Revolutionize Handcrafts
Our slow-fashion model relies on local artisans who possess skills have been neglected and rendered irrelevant on today’s mass production system and modern retail madness.
We seek to support unprivileged locals and refugees in the handcrafts business and provide them the means to create these only made-once products

03. Community

The one’s who inspire authenticity, who desire something real. Up-fusers are
Me and you- all we truly are deep down.
They’re the genuine, the expressive, the shy and bold, the artisans, the creators as we as the advocates and curators.
