At Convert Art, we are not just a business. We are a sustainable “solution” for many recyclable and non-recyclable materials. A testament to creativity in the face of waste.

Our mission is simple yet significant: to breathe new life into things that are no longer in use.

We specialize in crafting unique upcycled products from inner tubes, rubber, electrical materials, advertising banners, wood, aluminum, life jackets, carpets, and many other carefully selected materials. Our goal is to ensure the smallest possible environmental footprint. The idea of Convert Art began in 2012 with Marina Gryponisioti, who, surrounded by discarded tires in an auto repair shop, sparked her curiosity. Experimenting, she created the first belt from a tire. Over time, old speakers turned into colorful jewelry, and Convert Art evolved, producing 60 different items and 400+ designs in 11 years.

Convert Art creations have been showcased in both large and small exhibitions and markets, such as the Athens Fashion Trade Show (2016), Contemporary Creations (2016), The Fashion Room Service (2015), and The Meet Market (2013, 2023).

Our commitment to innovation and sustainability has been recognized with awards such as Top Design in 2016 and a strong nomination in the European StartUp Europe Awards in Brussels, in the “Creative Industries” category. In December 2013, jewelry made from electrical materials and handmade bags from banners were awarded in the Greek Design = Good Design competition.

Convert Art has become the voice of ecological fashion, proving that sustainability and aesthetics coexist perfectly. In the first 5 years alone, we recycled over 20 tons of inner tubes, giving life to materials that would otherwise end up as waste and protecting the environment from the pollution they would cause.

In 2021, we began exploring ways to utilize new discarded materials, leading to an innovative collaboration with Aegean Airlines, creating a series of products from life jackets and aircraft components.

As we continue our journey, our dedication to ecological sensitivity, sustainability, and ethical values remains unwavering. Each piece we create tells a story of transformation and commitment to a better, more sustainable future. Join us on this extraordinary journey toward a world where creativity meets consciousness.

Together, let’s change the course of waste.
All Convert Art creations are handmade and unique pieces. They are manufactured from used raw materials, based on the Upcycling philosophy. They are vegan, ecological and contain no animal derivatives.

The inner tubes have 5 processing steps, so they do not smell and do not lose their color. The material is waterproof, due to its non-porous surface, very resistant to extreme weather conditions and easy to clean.

We collect the used inner tubes and bicycle tires from partner companies or bicycle shops. We clean, process and organize the inner tubes and tires in our workshop, and later begin designing the products. After the production process begins we add the zippers, buckles, and the latest touches. Lastly the products go through quality control and are placed on the shelves for distribution.

The electrical equipment is collected from old televisions, computers and other electrical appliances, whilst the other material is recyclable aluminum.
