23 Dec Upcycling waste for Christmas tree decorations
NFM Production facilities in Poland upcycled leftover materials and fabric waste created by our company.
We’ve reused last year’s decorations (mesh ribbons, paper rosettes, ornaments made of cardboard rolls) and added some other ornaments made with natural and biodegradable materials – walnuts, dried oranges, cotton ribbons, cinnamon sticks, gingerbread cookies, and wooden toys.
Additionally, there is a small Christmas tree decorating the reception desk, which is made with a spool (leftover from the textile department) and dyed feathers.
To bring it all together we’ve decided to purchase some wooden nutcrackers and red ornaments – they’ve created a nice holiday theme and made everything much more festive.
All the upcycled decorations were handmade by local florists that we frequently collaborate with, Kamila and Monika. They’ve looked through our waste to pick and choose whatever could be useful. They’ve also provided us with the trees grown by a local farmer – one for every canteen and the showroom. The Christmas wreaths were made by them as well, with fresh evergreen branches and walnuts.
Moreover, all of the production departments decorated their respective production areas – at first, it was just to celebrate Saint Nicholas Day, as it is a Polish custom to do so, but it soon turned into a competition between the departments. They all tried to outdo each other sending in 30 submissions, resulting in wonderful decorations.
All participants received a goodie pack, which is traditionally gifted on St. Nicholas Day.
At NFM, we care about our environment.
