Juice Recycled School Back Pack

A Juice school back pack will brighten up any playground. It is made from collected juice carton refuse, thus avoiding landfills and creating quirky fun fashion. It has two adjustable shoulder straps. At the front, there is a useful pocket running the full width of the back pack.

Inside, there is one main compartment which has a zip closure at the top.  

As each back pack is made from recycled materials, each one is unique and may differ slightly from the actual images shown.

This co-operative was founded in 2007 and is made up of 10 part time studio workers and about 70 home workers, mainly women who are all paid the national minimum wage or above, allowing them to support their families.

The workers get a bonus every Christmas, equivalent to one month`s wage. Their healthcare is also supported. These workers are from the Cebu mountain regions where work is difficult to gain.

The project supports both local jobs and helps to keep the surrounding environment clean as the materials used by the artisans is waste packaging that was heading for landfill. The co-operative has been funded by the UK and a French partner to purchase the sewing machines and cleaning facilities.
