Ekotribe launches GreenSmart’s Eco-friendly Lunch Bags in the Middle East

Speaking at the launch of GreenSmart products in the region, Anu Agarwal – Director of Ekotribe stated, “GreenSmart’s new lunch bags are stylish, colorful bags that do everything a lunch bag should do-insulate and protect-without harm to the food, the consumer, or the environment.”

 

Plastic bottles are one of the biggest environmental disasters today. These bottles, which are made from petroleum, find their way into landfills, rivers, lakes and roadsides. And they never decompose.

 

The technology exists today to convert these bottles into high-quality, durable fabrics which look and perform equal to their virgin counterparts.

 

All of GreenSmart fabrics are made from 100% certified post-consumer recycled PET bottles. You get a top quality product made from one of the most durable fabrics in the world, polyester, and save the planet at the same time.

 

All GreenSmart lunch bags are made from Neogreene, a water-based material which allows for a much cleaner chemistry than ‘Neoprene’. As a result, the production of the material uses 25% less petroleum, 25% less energy and completely eliminates the need to use toxin laden solvent adhesives to bind the fabrics to the Neogreene.

 

GreenSmart’s lunch bag collection includes three styles: ‘old school’ Margay, the more progressive Javan, and the hip Sifaka; each offers all the benefits of Neogreene, fully closing compartments, and details varying to meet a range of needs. Each is available in four stylish color combinations.
