Description
Recycled Plastic Beads – 100% handmade from plastic bottle caps
These recycled beads are made from bottle caps collected by our SchoolCycled community and hand-cast via the injection moulding machinery in our Hull workshops.
Every single bead is unique, with different markings and colouration – the colours of the beads depend on the materials available that we have collected.

Supporting SchoolCycled: For our little recyclers
Every purchase supports our mission to recycle directly from the community. Collecting SchoolCycled bottle lids ensures they are recycled and don’t end up in landfill or incineration.
SchoolCycled is our platform designed to educate the next generation about recycling, fragile ecosystems and sustainability. Ultimately, we need our children to become environmentalists, activists and scientists – with the ability to create the solutions needed for our pollution and climate change issues.
We aim to inspire, reward and educate through the scheme; schools gain access to our range of teaching materials, and we’re proudly providing furniture, play equipment, signage, bins and more – all made from their recycled waste – to reward the children’s participation.
