Circutus comes to Werstas – everyday circular economy and encounters

Circutus arrives at Werstas in October! Circutus is a community where you can lend and rent your own items to colleagues and office neighbours safely and easily, increasing everyday circular economy and pleasant encounters. Suitable items for sharing include hobby equipment, tableware, renovation tools, and household appliances. Let’s put items into circulation together!

A dedicated Circutus Inner Circle has been created for Werstas members, a platform for renting items among Werstas colleagues. What rarely used items could you put to work?

 – Circutus is also an excellent service for increasing a sense of community. Meeting at Werstas is easy in common areas and office cafés, and with Circutus, these encounters will certainly increase even more, says Saija Kivikankare, Customer Account Manager at Werstas.

Three reasons to use Circutus:

– You put items sleeping in your storage to work. Do you own tableware, tools, a tent, or perhaps a children's travel cot? By using Circutus, your items will effortlessly generate extra income!

– You can try something new without buying it for yourself. Would you or your child like to try a new hobby, but you are hesitant about buying expensive equipment in case the activity doesn't turn out to be for you? By renting, you can test risk-free whether it is worth buying the equipment.

– Renting is safe. Payment transactions go through Stripe, and renters are strongly authenticated. When sharing among inner circle members, your items are in the hands of a familiar community. You can still use Circutus to its full extent if you wish.
