Rags to Riches now offers a wide range of creative services and environmentally sustainable materials made from waste. Whether your a business or organisation looking for a sustainable solution for something you’re working on or you’re on the hunt for value for money extras for personal projects, take a look below to see what we have to offer.
Locally Recycled Plastics
On the lookout for sustainable plastics for your project? Look no further. We now offer a great selection of ground plastics that are made entirely from plastic waste collected from around Glasgow and the surrounding areas. All our plastics are recycled at our workshops at The Deep End in the Southside of Glasgow.
Bespoke Garden Furniture
We’ve been really busy making bespoke outdoor furniture for businesses and organisations all over the Southside of Glasgow, and guess what? All our designs are made entirely from waste wood! We’ve now opened up this service to our community, so whether you want to spruce up your patio or invite nature into your workspace, get in touch to find out more.
Laser Cutting Service
Do you know the power of a laser cutter? Whatever the shape, whatever the style, you can laser cut anything you like, from funky forms and patterns to laser etching and more! All you need to do is design the outline and choose your material. Whether you’re a business or organisation looking to make signs (like we have in the photo!), a university student looking to expand your work or you simply want to get creative with cutting, get in touch to discuss your project with our brilliant laser cutting facilitators.
This project is kindly supported and funded by Scottish Government and Europeans Social Growth Fund.
