Even when you go shopping you are able to do a good deed...
No I am not exactly talking about choosing paper instead of plasticlinks for your groceries....

Have a look at the nice and handy bags at RagBag .

The brand name already let us reckoned that the bags origin is India and that is absolutely correct.

Ragbags are fashionable products made from recycled plastic bags collected by 'ragpickers' in the slums of New Delhi.

Plastic rags are collected, washed, dried and separated by colour. The plastic bags then go into a machine, which presses them into thicker and more durable sheets. No dyes or inks are required. It takes about 60 plastic bags to make one sheet. The sheets are then cut, lined with cloth and stitched or moulded into the various products.


This project already created 50 jobs for ragpickers in New Dheli. Most of the workers are women who can support their families and gain access to more opportunities.

If you like to order one please do so online or take a look where the next shop is.
And remember: "Do a good deed every day!"
