Orbis Circular
Collection
Not just for you. For all of us.
How can we take waste materials, turn them into an awesome new bag and, at the end of its life, turn that bag into something new again? The answer is the Orbis Circular Collection, the first zero waste bags that can be recycled over and over again to make something new.
A fully circular product.
Almost all bags today are made from a mix of different materials, which makes them virtually impossible to recycle. Moreover, bags typically comprise dozens of different components, most of which include polyurethane (PU). And when PU is combined with other materials, recycling is essentially out of the question.
So, how could we re-engineer our bags using just one material?
We worked with development labs to create components from scratch, using just one material to keep the integrity of the bags intact. That material is recycled PET/polyester, the same material as a plastic bottle. To accomplish full circularity, we also redeveloped the bags’ linings, reinforcement, zippers and more – all in recycled PET/polyester.
We’re particularly proud of the cycle of a polyester molecule being used in a bag and then being recycled so it can be used again. And, as our name implies, each molecule has a rich history with long journeys and a story to share.
Now, it’s your turn to use the bag on new journeys, creating new memories. And, once you’re done, the bag will be recycled and those molecules will then take a new form, yet again, to create a new bag. Using this product, you’re part of the ongoing story of circularity – a story that will continue to take shape for years to come. Because it’s
Not just for you. For all of us.
