Material: Upcycled Drawstring Bags are made from 100% cotton t-shirts, with fabric sourced from the sleeves and other donated materials. This soft, durable cotton ensures the bags are not only practical but also lightweight and eco-friendly.

Description: These drawstring bags are available in various sizes to suit different needs, from small gift bags to larger storage solutions. Designed for reusability, they offer a zero-waste alternative to traditional wrapping paper. The bags can also be personalized and branded with corporate logos, making them a versatile choice for businesses and individuals alike. Handmade by the local Upcycle community project, each bag combines practicality with a touch of creativity and supports local artisans.
Community impact: At Upcycle, our mission is community development. We take pride in our skills development program, where we educate our team members about climate change and entrepreneurship, while equipping them with the skills to create these beautiful and practical products. By choosing our Upcycled drawstring Bags, you’re not only investing in a high-quality, handmade item but also empowering our team members and contributing to the growth of our community. Upcycle diverts waste from landfills, transforming waste into livelihood opportunities for our communities.
Environmental impact: Upcycling t-shirts into drawstring bags significantly reduces textile waste and supports a circular economy. By repurposing old or donated t-shirts, this process diverts fabric from landfills and minimizes the environmental burden of textile disposal. The reusable nature of the bags reduces the demand for single-use gift wrap, which often ends up as waste after one use. By giving new life to t-shirt fabric, these drawstring bags promote sustainable living and reduce the overall environmental impact of gift-giving and packaging.
