CRE8 is a social venture in the city centre of Amsterdam. In our workplace and shop we produce and sell our own design products. We have original lighting, unique jewellery and children’s products, which can all be persona­lized. Everything is also available in our web­shop. Furthermore CRE8 designs, prints and cuts for a wide range of clients.

All our products are produced with digital techniques, like lasercutting and 3D printing. In our workplace our digital craftsmen take care of the high quality standard for our pro­ducts: the lasercut parts, 3D prints and the assem­bly of the products. Every product has a hallmark from the responsible creator.

CRE8 social venture wants to be meaningful for everyone in the community; not only for clients and consumers, but also by focusing on the talents and effort of less visible groups within society, specifically disadvantaged youngsters. Having grown up in the ‘digital’ world, younger people are generally more attracted to working with these kinds of digital fabrication techniques. At CRE8 they can discover their interests, and under the supervision of the CRE8 employees have the chance to evolve. In this way we want to positively contribute to the career opportunities available to these young people. At CRE8 Social Venture everyone is welcome to work on the(ir) future.
