Lässig's Green Label Bags Turn Trash into Functional Fashion

A great example of Lässig's cutting edge innovation and concern for the environment is their line of Green Label diaper bags made from polyester fabric sourced from recycled plastic bottles. These chic, stylish bags are perfect for the eco-conscious and modern parent because no longer do they have to sacrifice style for sustainability. This special polyester fabric is called CyclePET, which is made from 100% post-consumer recycled PET bottles. PET bottles are those that have a “1” inside the universal recycling symbol symbol on the bottom.

Billions of plastic water, soda and juice bottlespollute the land and ocean endangering the welfare of all species. Lässig's diaper bags help reduce waste by utilizing bottles that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill, someone’s yard, or the sea. Using CyclePET also protects the earth's valuable resources by reducing unnecessary strains on the environment during the manufacturing process. Compared to traditional production methods, producing fabric from recycled materials reduces waste water by 20%, energy consumption by 50%, and harmful emissions by 60%. Therefore, using this CylePET material instead of new polyester raw material doubles the environmental benefit.

PET stands for polyethylene terephthalate, a plastic polyester. PET bottles are crushed, cleaned and blended into a small powder. Later it is melted and processed into long threads that are woven into the CyclePET fabric. 16 20oz. bottles = 1 yard of fabric. Because the bottles used to make this polyester were first used for food and drink, the plastic itself by law is free of BPA and other harmful chemicals, making it a great option for reuse.
