WESTERN TRASH BERLIN / HIGH QUALITY GLASSES FROM RECYCLED BOTTLES

WesternTrash is designer glassware with Berlin soul. They make high-quality glasses from recycled bottles. Creating something from nothing, we challenge people to think differently about discarded objects.
WesternTrash is unique. Their products are crafted by hand, meaning no two are exactly the same. Each one is an individual work of art, inspired by the creative energy of Kreuzberg.

WesternTrash is sustainable. They use 100% recycled materials, produce no waste, and source all our glass locally in Berlin. It`s a simple concept with stunning results.
how we do it

WesternTrash drinkware is handcrafted with care and precision. They source recycled bottles from Berlin restaurants, carefully selecting them by size, color and glass quality. Bottles are soaked to remove any labels, then cut to size with a diamond saw. The cut edge is ground until smooth and consistent. Each glass is triple-polished for a brilliant shine, then sandblasted with their distinctive logo, the WesternTrash Star. Finally, they put the glasses through an industrial-grade dishwasher, and they`re ready to face the world. The finished product is packaged by hand in unbranded, reusable boxes.


welcome to Kreuzberg
WesternTrash draws inspiration from the creative energy of Berlin Kreuzberg. The neighborhood is a mosaic of freethinkers and rebels, artists and anarchists. A place where spontaneous beauty and madness fill the streets, and no two days are exactly the same.

Kreuzberg residents think outside the square. They question norms and challenge authority. The logo, the WesternTrash Star, symbolises a broken shop window from one of Kreuzberg`s occasional riots. The handmade glasses pay homage to the defiant spirit of Berlin`s most vibrant district. Think differently and follow your own path – that`s the WesternTrash philosophy.
