Bekos Upcycling - Student bag from recycled fish food bags blue

Upcycling - Turning old into new

This spacious bag made from recycled fish food bags is a real eye-catcher. It is the perfect companion and offers plenty of storage space for shopping, work, school, or outings. It is big enough for a folder (A4 size), making it a practical bag for students.

This student bag features a flap lid with a zipped compartment that closes with two magnets. It also has a zipped compartment on the back, ideal for small items such as keys, a mobile phone, or a wallet. The bag can be closed with a zipper. Inside, a waterproof black fabric has been sewn in. Besides the main compartment, there are two smaller compartments inside, one open and one with a zipper. To protect the design, recycled PVC has been covered on the outside.

The material made from recycled fish food bags is very durable, waterproof, and long-lasting. Each product is handmade and therefore unique. The look and texture of the material may vary slightly.

Help to reduce waste and do something good not only for nature but also for disadvantaged communities in Cambodia.

All our products made of cement bags, rice and fish feed bags, and vehicle tires are produced under the Fair Trade seal in strict compliance with the 10 Commandments. This project is certified by the World Fair Trade Organization and awarded by UNESCO. All accessories are designed by the villagers themselves and lovingly handmade, each one is unique. The material cut-outs can vary in design because the bags are completely processed. The material with the fish motif was originally a fish food sack and, in its second life, a rice sack before being transformed into these noble accessories. You can find out more about the origin and manufacture of these products on the "About us" page.
