Upstream Trophies

About Upstream Trophies

At Upstream Trophies our manifesto is simple yet powerful: from waste to glory. In a world drowning in too much junk, we challenge the trophy market to be better. To embrace sustainability, prioritize aesthetics, unleash creativity and foster innovation. Our foundation is built on the belief that every piece of waste can be reborn into an extraordinary statement piece.

Aesthetic allure
 We see beauty in discarded materials and create glory out of waste. In co-creation with our clients, we craft customized works of arts that are tangible proof of their brands’ core values. We draw inspiration from architectural movements like Bauhaus and the latest trends in interior design to create unique awards that add a touch of glory to any office or home.

Material first
 Our motto? Form follows material. Specializing in plastics and utilizing diverse waste streams like discarded fishnets, our material-first approach is an ode to modern craftsmanship. Over the past decade, we have gained knowledge and experience with our parent company Better Future Factory in various innovative production processes for sustainable materials. We apply this knowledge to our awards: from curating discarded materials, custom sheet pressing, 3d printing and injection moulding to the final masterpiece. We even go as far as reusing the waste streams of our clients to create high-end awards.

Truly sustainable
 Our dedication to sustainability is not just a claim. Each trophy is accompanied by a material passport, outlining its sustainable backstory. Moreover, our recycled materials are scouted as locally as possible. All awards are transported with minimal carbon footprint and packaged using eco-friendly materials. Thus we set the standard in sustainability and the proof is in every trophy.

We are Upstream Trophies and we create unique, high end and sustainable awards that deserve to be seen.

From waste to glory.
