Vaapsi marks a beginning of a movement towards optimizing re-purposed, upcycled and recycled materials and responsible consumption. Our brand is built on the belief that the beauty of materials lies not only in their original form but also in the stories they can tell when given a new life. At Vaapsi, we are passionate about reviving & reimagining dispensed materials or product/s into well designed, purposeful apparel, home/office furnishing products and personal accessories, blending tradition with modern design.
Vaapsi serves as a reminder to embrace change, encourage resilience and optimism. This captures the cyclical nature of life, much like the essence of Vaapsi.
Our founders are deeply passionate about sustainability and the transformative potential of a circular, localized economy. By prioritizing local sourcing and production, we support communities and reduce our carbon footprint. They envision a world in which every revived product not only serves a practical purpose but also carries a unique story that reflects its journey. Each item represents a commitment to responsible practices, ethical production methods, and mindful consumption.
As advocates in the circular economy, we prioritize sustainability and responsible consumption in every aspect of our product lifecycle. Our commitment to circular design principles ensures that each product is made with care for the environment and the future. Specifically, our practices are guided by three core principles:
We ensure that our products can be easily repaired, reused, refurbished, upcycled, or recycled at the end of their useful life contributing to the reduction of waste and the conservation of natural resources.
We actively incorporate repurposed, upcycled and recycled materials into our products to reduce our reliance on virgin resources and reduce waste. Every product has a minimum of 25% Repurposed, Upcycled, and Recycled Materials. We aim to increase the percentage to 35-40% by 2030.
One of the cornerstones of the circular economy is durability. By creating long-lasting products, we ensure that they serve their intended purpose for as long as possible, reducing the need for replacements and minimizing resource consumption. This means we can withstand extended use and are less likely to end up in landfills.
Reducing dependence on virgin materials.
Services for repair, refurbish and repurpose..
We offer a unique product buyback program where we take back products once they reach the end of their life cycle. In return, we will compensate customers with 5-15% of the original purchase value, which can be redeemed on their next purchase.
Additionally, we may introduce future partnership programs, allowing customers to benefit further through exclusive offers and rewards (conditions apply). This initiative reflects our commitment to sustainability and customer satisfaction, ensuring that our products continue to deliver value even beyond their lifecycle.
Also, as a part of the services provided by our holding company, we provide a Climate Footprint Assessment. For more details, please write to us on info@vaapsi.com
