Unlocking potential in educational spaces
Furniture Re-Engineering
At Recycle Scotland, we recognise the vital role that educational institutions play in shaping our future. As part of our commitment to sustainability and innovation, we are proud to work alongside universities and colleges across Scotland to re-engineer their existing furniture as an alternative to buying new.
University of Dundee
The University of Dundee is one of our key clients in the sector and together we are on a journey of repairing and reupholstering their existing, damaged furniture, ensuring it is fit for purpose and aligns with the University’s values of sustainability.
As an alternative to buying new, the initial stage of the project saved approx. 600kg of furniture from going to landfill and saved over £5,000 for the University.
Our Tailored Process
- Consultation: Our team collaborates closely with your institution to understand your unique needs, design preferences, and sustainability goals.
- Assessment: We assess your existing furniture to understand the potential for refurbishment and re-engineering.

Keeping furniture in the economy for as long as possible
These university exam chairs had been a staple in the education sector since 1972, providing reliable service for over 50 years.
While many would assume that furniture like this has reached the end of its life, we work with universities and schools who see an opportunity to extend its usefulness, believing in the power of refurbishment to keep furniture in the economy for many years to come.
