Rag Bag Ethical and Eco-Friendly Yoga Mat Bag
What if we could give Indian ragpickers a fair job by creating eco-friendly and ethical yoga mat bags from tea bags, plastic bags and fabrics that would otherwise be thrown away? The idea was born in 2005 from the meeting in Delhi between Siem, a Dutch designer, and Anita, an Indian inventor.
This beautiful project, called Rag Bag, has already provided fair employment to 20 women from a small village in Tamil Nadu, and combines ethical commitment, fair trade and smart recycling!
The young Dutch brand Bloom has now made them into Yoga bags! The bags, designed by young Dutch designers, are waterproof and resistant, and will convince committed practitioners to invest in a beautiful responsible project.
All bags are unique & different because they are made from tea bags (non-contractual photo)
