About our management
Who steers what at Flanders Circular?
FIBROCIT creates and installs fixed destination projects for the world of culture, education, B2B, sports & entertainment and hospitality. These include theatres, cinemas, university auditoriums and conference centres. But also waiting rooms, meeting rooms, sports halls and classrooms. Recently, the chair producer has been reducing production surpluses and end-of-life chairs into raw materials that form the basis for being reintroduced into the value chain of the SURKLR platform.
Webshop with sustainable and upcycled furniture
With SURKLR, FIBROCIT wants to offer a platform with products and services that are all about circularity and sustainability. One of the initiatives is the SURKLR webshop. There you will discover products divided into 3 categories. RECLAIMED STUFF are upcycled products made mainly from recovered materials and production surpluses.
With PRECIOUS STUFF, you choose new products made from raw materials that are mined in an environmentally friendly way. For example, yarn made from plastic waste from the sea and European wood sustainably grown and mined. In VINTAGE STUFF, in turn, you will find unique vintage cinema and theatre chairs with historical-cultural value that are ready for a second life.
Renovation of existing equipment
In addition to the webshop, FIBROCIT also offers services with SURKL. For example, when you plan to renovate your hall, as a customer you can choose to have your existing FIBROCIT equipment repaired and even left complete to give it a second life.
Rental of SURKLR furniture
And with seating-as-a-service, SURKLR makes small items such as poufs, side chairs and side tables available to retailers. They can thus easily redecorate their shops every season or with every new collection.
More liveable world
Benedict Geers, owner and CEO of FIBROCIT: "With SURKLR, we are breaking with the idea that raw materials have no value once they are end-of-life. By upcycling our discarded chairs and production surpluses into circular products, we are going even one step further. Thus, with FIBROCIT, we are helping to make tomorrow's world more liveable. With SURKLR, by the way, we also just started doing cocreation," Benedict concludes with news. "With our residual materials, we are now also making covers for acoustic panels made from waste from the flax industry."
