About this material

Matterpieces is a movement dedicated to advancing construction circularity, pioneering the next generation of waste-based materials for design projects. The company has developed a refined cladding material made from construction debris that not only enhances spaces aesthetically but also competes with traditional market options—demonstrating that upcycling waste doesn’t have to look wasteful.

Matterpieces creates premium cladding materials using debris such as glass, bricks, cement, and stone, reducing the reliance on finite raw materials, diverting waste from landfills, and lowering CO2 emissions through circular economy principles. These versatile materials are suitable for a range of applications, including flooring, wall coverings, countertops, and furniture.

The company offers two distinct textures: Matter, which showcases the raw beauty of debris with authentic colors and textures, and Nebula, characterized by bold, dynamic patterns where waste dust blends and swirls, bringing movement and energy to any space.

Collaboration is central to Matterpieces’ process. By partnering with industry experts, the company optimizes waste separation during demolition, processes debris into raw materials, and integrates them into high-end surfaces—turning waste into value.
