“A lot has happened since we were on TreeHugger”, was the answer we got back from our pals at Modulab, in Chile. The design studio that recycles advertising banners to produce accessories such as bags, wallets and alike, is now working with our also featured Ecoist to distribute its bags in the USA (we’re so glad to be able to connect countries like that!), and has focused on re-using the PVC coming from the film industry. They’re also working on shoes from the same material, with the goal to make stores that will sell all different shoes only separated by the fact that they’re right or left (not more unveiled yet! but we’ll bring you the news). So if you’re in need of a new bag or want to give someone a green present, contact the guys from Modulab through contacto at modulab dot cl. ::Modulab
