WoW! A foldable RPET bag. This bag is made from used recycled PET bottles. Why is choosing RPET sustainable? • Saving 75% of fossil energy in production and another 5% in combustion. • Plastic, so polyester is also made from petroleum. RPET products provide 70% lower CO2 emissions. • Recycled polyester uses 90% less drinking water than polyester and recycled bottles don't end up in the ocean. • Recycling provides many jobs worldwide. • RPET material is of a high quality. With the purchase of this product you support Plastic Bank®: A social enterprise, headquartered in Canada, which aims to clean up plastic waste from our oceans while providing valuable opportunities for impoverished communities. Plastic Bank® offers residents of Haiti, the Philippines, Indonesia and other regions cash or vouchers in exchange for the waste they collect, which then goes on to be recycled into products. The brand is known as Social Plastic®.
