Sustainable promotional bags that carry responsibility.
Sustainable promotional products that actually get used: recycled materials, long-lasting quality and EU production with short supply routes. For us, sustainability isn’t an add-on – it’s the foundation.
Responsibility starts with the material.
A promotional bag often stays with its owner for years – and that is where its sustainable strength lies. We rely on materials that have already been through one life cycle and, on request, on production with short supply routes within the EU.
What our sustainability is built on
Recycled materials
Our RPET is made from collected PET bottles. That gives plastic that has already been used a second life – as hard-wearing bag fabric rather than waste. Felt and polyester are also available in recycled material on request.
Durability & reuse
A bag that lasts for many years replaces countless single-use carriers. Hard-wearing materials, clean workmanship and well-thought-out functionality keep your promotional bag in everyday use.
EU production & short routes
Where it makes sense, we manufacture within the EU. Shorter transport routes mean lower emissions, predictable lead times and greater transparency on standards and working conditions.
Responsible supply chain
We work with selected partners and insist on fair, traceable processes. For us, responsibility begins with the choice of every single material.
From PET bottle to bag
PET bottle
Used bottles are collected, sorted and cleaned.
RPET granulate
Shredded and processed into granulate – the basis for new yarn.
Woven fabric
Spun into tapes, woven and laminated.
Your bag
Printed, in use for years – and recyclable again at the end of its life.
Transparency instead of empty promises
We don’t advertise with blanket percentages or labels that don’t fit every project. The material declarations and certificates relevant to your specific product (e.g. GRS, OEKO-TEX®) are available per project and on request.
Questions about sustainability
hello@shopybag.comHow sustainable are the bags?
We rely on recycled materials such as RPET made from PET bottles, on durable quality for many reuses and, on request, on EU production with short transport routes. For us, sustainability is the foundation, not an add-on.
What does RPET mean?
RPET stands for recycled PET – plastic recovered from used PET bottles and processed into a robust woven fabric. This turns waste into a durable, reusable advertising medium.
Are the bags reusable and recyclable?
Yes. Our bags are designed for long-term use, are reusable and, depending on the material, recyclable – a sustainable alternative to single-use bags.
Carry your brand responsibly.
