About OFFCUT
OFFCUT collects and sells used and leftover materials, turning them back into useful materials. The material markets in Basel, Zurich, Bern and St. Gallen collect used and leftover materials that would otherwise end up as refuse. OFFCUT sorts, stores and sells them as materials for new projects, thereby extending their service life. The company raises awareness among the Swiss population for the careful use of resources and offers creative answers to the ecological challenges of our time.
All OFFCUT material markets are a place of inspiration and serve as a platform for proactive discourse on the topics of resource conservation and circular concepts. As a forward-looking model, the company has been providing practical impulses for a social transformation process since 2013 and inspiring a more sustainable lifestyle.
