Extend the life of projects and products

Idle assets are reused rather than discarded in landfills, supportingsustainability across the cultural and attractions sector.

Supporting sustainability in the cultural sector

Cultural institutions and attractions frequently retire exhibitions and exhibit components when galleries are updated or programming changes. These materials often end up in storage or are discarded, despite having significant value.

culturenut supports a circular economy for cultural institutions by providing a marketplace where used exhibits and exhibition assets can be resold and reused by other organisations. By extending the life of exhibition materials, institutions can reduce waste, lower fabrication costs, and minimise the environmental impact of building new exhibits.

Through this approach, culturenut helps cultural institutions and attractions operate more sustainably while making better use of existing resources.

Cultural institutions around the world are using culturenut to buy and resell used exhibits and exhibition assets, extending the life of exhibitions while supporting more sustainable practices.

Organisations can explore available listings, connect with other institutions, and give retired exhibition assets a second life through the culturenut marketplace.
