Fair Pack
Under this motto, there are currently various types of bags and exchanges in the "World Shop" stores.
These are handmade products are made from discarded materials.
The products come from the company Conserve, which was founded in 1998 as an NGO in Delhi (India).
Conserve has set its focus on energy and waste management and seeks above all to campaigns on waste reduction and youth work on environmental protection and in particular to draw attention to the problem of waste.
2002, the company developed a unique method for recycling plastic bags, which makes it possible, in innovative contribute to waste minimization as in India.
In Greater Dehli, there are innumerable plastic bags that are on and off the streets and do not biodegrade. Therefore they are often burned and ran on thus a negative contribution to smog-ridden city.
in 2002 developed method makes it possible to process these bags into marketable products.
The plastic bags are collected, washed, sorted by color and then in a workshop by a patented melting and pressing equipment to HRP films (Hand Made Recycled Plastic) converted, which can be used for bags or exchanges.
Conserve supplies by this achievement is not only a major contribution to environmental protection but also create many jobs in an area that is characterized by poverty, where education is scarce and people can barely afford to survive.
The production of these products, the residents can easily finance their living expenses and the company has now Conserve already built a school for the children of the collectors and assist him in the purchase of school materials.
Currently, about 100 families will benefit from this company and the idea of recycling bags in 2006 and 2008 led to the nomination of the environmental and design awards.
I am a product of this idea very excited because these products are not only visually appealing and useful, but also have significant benefits for the country of production.
From the production of recycled bags, there is also a short film. Unfortunately I have not found this on the web. Interested in this but I like to send.
