Bundubags
makes innovative, totally recycled bags with a core belief that lives
can be changed by good design. Bundubags began with a creative idea,
a love of contemporary African design and a desire to support African
women.
Handwoven
using traditional African weaving techniques, each bag is made from
recycled cargo strapping made from PET, which is spun into long strips.
One of the beach bags for examples, uses the equivalent of 6 to 8
pieces of 1.5L PET bottle , so more PET recycled bags means less
waste in our daily life .
They
also collect offcuts, unused strapping bales as well as used strips,
that they sort and clean and re-use in the production of each bag. So
it is twice recycled!
The
project is based in the Alexandra township on the outskirts of
Johannesburg South Africa, and it now employs 40 women, all of whom
earn a sustainable income.
