Gaia Goods, a company that has been designing personal and home accessories for almost 15 years, is now introducing to the United States market a line of trendy, colorful and affordable items made from reclaimed plastic bags in association with ConserveUSA. This process does not involve the use of dyes or colors, is very unique and operates on fair trade standards. We all know that disposable bags are a major threat to our environment so we’re happy to see a company offering an alternative for one of our biggest waste problems. We agree with Gaia in the hopes that one day these bags will be considered unnecessary but until then we do hope that people take the proper steps in recycling them properly. Products available include handbags, totes, photo frames and desk accessories. ::Gaia Goods
