The new RecyclenBrand homepage: 'Made of what you threw away' above a row of coloured tees

A full website revamp for a t-shirt brand made from recycled plastic bottles, rebuilt on Shopify so the store, products and checkout stay in sync.

The challenge

RecyclenBrand makes tees and socks from recycled plastic bottles, started by Steve Vander Klok after more than 20 years in the waste and recycling industry. The old site was a stock template that never told that story.

The product was good. The site just didn't give anyone a reason to care, or an easy way to pick a shirt.

What we did

We rebuilt the site around the story: a loud headline, the shirts front and centre, and the journey from recycling bin to doorstep laid out in five stops.

Then we put it on Shopify, so every colour, price and product on the site comes straight from the store and checkout just works.

We finished with an affiliate program, so customers can share a code and earn on every shirt they sell.
