Experience circular


A visit to Nihtisilta Kierrätyskeskus is an opportunity to experience reuse in practice. It is a unique, unforgettable dive straight into the very heart of circular economy. Visitors get to see how items circulate from donation to the store shelf, or get a new lease of life after a detour through our workshops. We wish to inspire and encourage everyone to think about ways to save the valuable natural recources!
