If not now, when? We have been living this principle for 12 years!
We have had this principle since the founding of the BAG TO LIFE brand in 2010. Sustainability has always been a matter of course for us.Because upcycling is sustainability in action. Every reuse of materials effectively saves CO2. Even GOTS certified organic cotton is not as sustainable as products made from upcycled materials. This is because everything that is newly produced automatically has higher CO2 emissions.
Our principle is that sustainability is fun. With creative ideas, we reduce CO2 emissions every day. Since BAG TO LIFE was founded, we have saved 600,000 kg of CO2. We create cycles. Life jackets, for example, fly under the seat for up to 10 years. Then their shelf life has expired. They used to be shredded and incinerated. Now you wear them on your shoulder every day as a Runway Messenger Bag.
Back to Life - BAG TO LIFE, we give materials, with exceptional material properties a new life. Lifejackets are light, durable, waterproof, a real high-tech material from the airplane. What better way to protect your laptop than with a material that was originally designed to protect your life.
With our upcycling agency - by the way the 1st upcycling agency worldwide - we like to process materials for companies. Upcycling is a trend for companies and a useful strategic marketing component. In terms of materials, we are very broadly positioned with our intelligent upcycling cycle. No matter if metal, wood, textile, plastic, glass or paper. No matter whether production residues or B-goods,
We produce exclusively in Europe.
In small owner-managed family businesses that provide good working conditions for their employees and have little fluctuation. In 2021 we were even nominated for the GERMAN SUSTAINABILITY AWARD for our partnership in the textile sector.
Every step we take is subject to sustainability. For our environment, for our partners, for society and for YOU!
