Event Material Upcycling Process
We work one-on-one with your team through easy, guided steps to jumpstart your sustainable success.
Start With the Materials You Already Have
Have event signs, banners, lanyards or textiles left after an event?
Through Event Material Network, an initiative of MB Designs Inc., organizations across Canada can explore upcycling pathways designed around the materials they already have and what those materials could become next.
How the Upcycling Process Starts
1. Identify Your Materials
Start with what you have - event signs, conference lanyards, fabric banners, vinyl banners or other event textiles.
2. Explore the Possibilities
Different materials can follow different pathways, from upcycled products and employee experiences to youth and community impact programs.
3. Choose the Right Next Use
The pathway is selected based on the material, quantity, condition and what your organization would like to achieve.
4. Document the Outcome
Where applicable, project outcomes are documented so your organization can understand and share what happened to its materials.

Upcycled Banner Example
A 2ft x 5ft banner can be transformed into two market bags as part of your event decor upcycling project. Simply cut the fabric in half, sew the pieces together, and add handles to create sustainable solutions for carrying your goods. This is a great way to upcycle your signs and give them a new life!
