Our vision : Waste is the resources
Considering waste as a resource saves the resource and solves the waste problem.
UPCYCLINK is committed to a blue economy approach
The blue economy is an economic model inspired by natural ecosystems, which claims to meet basic needs by valorizing what is available locally and by transposing nature’s prowess to an industrial scale. This concept is based on the principles of the circular economy, a source of employment, where each waste would become a resource for another activity.
The spirit of Upcyclink encompasses 4 great values
Audacity
Upcyclink transcends the status quo.
We explore alternative ways to tackle the bio-waste right now.
Optimism

Sharing
Sharing is the base of our collective success.
Upcyclink promotes circular economy values.
Respect
Dialogue and mutual respect drives our relationship with all our stakeholders.

By-products become products !
So making food for humans with the biggest part of the by-products is the main target.
Thanks to a strong experience in products development, we cook up good and qualitative products loved by consumers.
