Sourced responsibly
Sustainability is more of a journey than a destination. And we hope the steps we take are always in the right direction. While we continue to grow our collections of bags made from recycled pre- and post-consumer materials, there are other ways we can leave a smaller footprint — like 100% recycled and recyclable shipping bags, manufacturing more bags closer to home to reduce emissions, and partnering with suppliers who help us create products that require less water, use fewer chemicals, and promote fair and ethical labor.
