About ReMatter Foundation
Building a Culture of Circularity
ReMatter Foundation was created around a simple idea:
Useful materials should not become waste simply because one person is finished with them.
Our current system often makes disposal easier than reuse.
ReMatter wants to change that.
We bring people, organizations, schools, businesses, nonprofits, makers, repair communities, and recovery partners together to create better pathways for materials.

Our work begins with reuse whenever possible and moves through responsible alternatives before landfill is considered.
OUR MISSION
To keep useful materials in circulation and out of landfills by making reuse, redistribution, repair, repurposing, upcycling, and responsible recovery easier and more accessible within communities.
OUR VISION
A world where materials remain useful for as long as possible—and where throwing something away is no longer the easiest option.
A world where the first question is no longer
"Where do I throw this?"
But instead:
"What could this become next?"
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Landfill Last.
ReMatter looks for the highest and best next use of a material.
Reuse → Redistribution → Repair → Repurpose / Upcycle → Recycling → Landfill Last
- Not everything can be reused.
- Not everything can be repaired.
- Not everything can be recycled.
But we believe we should explore the possibilities before accepting disposal as the default.
