ReTuna is the world's first Recycling Gallery. Here, guests shop in a completely new, climate-smart way. Old things are taken care of and given new life through repair and upcycling. Everything sold is recycled, reused, organically or sustainably produced. Sustainability is not about holding back and living less - but about achieving more with the resources we already have.

The mall was inaugurated in August 2015 and is located next to Retuna Recycling Center on Folkestaleden 7 in Eskilstuna. It is easy for visitors to sort materials in the containers and then take the opportunity to leave recyclable toys, furniture, clothes, furnishings and technology in the mall's depot "Returen". Here, the material is received in person by AMA (Eskilstuna municipality's resource unit for Activity, Motivation and Work) who does a first thinning. The items are then distributed to the recycling stores in the mall. The store staff does a second thinning and selects what they want to repair, fix, transform, refine - and sell. That way, the material still comes to life.

And the business idea works: In 2020, recycled products were sold for 15.4 million at ReTuna Återbruksgalleria. An increase of almost 92% from the start. 

But ReTuna is more than a trading place. The mission is also to be an educator. Events, workshops, lectures, theme days are organized here - all with a focus on sustainability. Eskilstuna Folkhögskola conducts its one-year education "Recycle Design - Recycling" on the premises. There are also conference rooms where guests can have climate-smart meetings. Café Returama offers organic lunch and coffee.
