Dezinery is Australia's first online marketplace dedicated to products made from recycled materials that are high-quality and well-designed.

What types of recycled materials do you feature?

We feature products made from recycled plastic (including PET bottles), tyres and rubber, textiles, agricultural waste like coffee grounds, and industrial metal waste.

Do you only sell Australian brands?

We focus on curating well-designed products from brands committed to using recycled materials and sustainable manufacturing practices.

How does Dezinery avoid greenwashing?

Look for clear explanations of materials, recycled content percentages, and realistic claims rather than vague terms like eco-friendly or green plastic. Dezinery uses the R.A.T.I.N.G. system where each letter stands for an element of sustainability: Recycled Content (0-49% Low, 50-84% Medium, 85-100% High), Assembly location (Australia/Overseas), Traceability of materials (Local/Imported), Impactful Design origin (Australia/Overseas - where sustainability begins), Next Life options (Yes/No for reuse/recycling/take-back), Generational Use lifespan (0-3yrs Low, 3-7yrs Medium, 7+yrs High). Includes supplier verification date. Comprehensive, yet simple and memorable. Focuses on verifiable product-level sustainability claims, not vague broad ESG.

About

Dezinery is an Australian online marketplace focused on well-designed products made from recycled and sustainable materials.

We created Dezinery to make it easier to find everyday homewares and lifestyle products that reduce waste - without sacrificing quality, function or design. Instead of chasing trends or making vague “eco” claims, we focus on clear materials, thoughtful design and products that are made to last.

Why recycled materials matter

Australia generates millions of tonnes of plastic waste each year, yet only a small proportion is recycled locally. One of the biggest barriers to improving recycling systems is lack of demand for recycled materials.

By choosing products made from recycled plastic and other recovered materials, we help:

Reduce reliance on virgin, fossil-fuel-based plastics
Keep useful materials in circulation for longer
Support recycling markets and infrastructure
Reduce waste sent to landfill

Recycled materials aren’t a perfect solution - but when used responsibly, they are a meaningful step toward a more circular economy.

Our approach to sustainability

At Dezinery, sustainability isn’t about being perfect. It’s about making better choices consistently.

That means:

Prioritising recycled and lower-impact materials where they make sense
Favouring durable, reusable products over disposable ones
Being transparent about what materials are used - and their limitations
Avoiding exaggerated or unclear sustainability claims

We believe honesty builds trust, and trust matters more than buzzwords.

Designed to be used - and kept

The most sustainable product is one that stays in use.

That’s why we focus on homewares and everyday products that are:

Practical and functional
Designed for repeated use
Made to last, not to be replaced quickly
Timeless rather than trend-driven

Good design plays a key role in reducing waste.

An Australian perspective

As an Australian business, we pay close attention to how products fit into local recycling systems, living habits and environmental challenges.

Where possible, we support suppliers and makers who are improving how materials are sourced, processed and reused - both in Australia and globally.

A balanced view

Recycled plastic isn’t always the right material for every product. Other materials - like metal, glass, timber and natural fibres - also have an important role to play.

Our goal isn’t to promote one material above all others, but to help people make informed, thoughtful choices about the products they bring into their homes.
