Sustainability
It's a mindset
- Energy management
- Next-gen robotics
- Sustainable materials
- Construction techniques
It’s about looking at the big picture, while making incremental changes. It’s a process and a journey rather than a final destination – we can always do better, to proactively find ways to reduce our impact. Find out more about some of our ideas – and we invite you to share yours.
What we offer
WE OPTIMISE PRODUCTION, BALANCING VALUE AND QUALITY WHEN MARGINS ARE CRITICAL. WE ALSO DEVELOP NEW CONCEPTS FROM DESIGN TO THE FINAL PREMIUM PRODUCT.
VALUE
We design thousands of tried and tested bags, ready to go when you are – any type, size, shape, material and budget. These include drawstring bags, shopping bags, packing cubes, duffels, totes, backpacks, messengers, waistpacks, tech bags, coolers and even pizza delivery bags. And you see something you like and you have an idea to make it unique, we will happily adapt it. Go to our download page to see our latest styles.
Bespoke
If you can dream it, we can make it. And if you’d like us to help turn your imagination into a full range, ready to fly off the shelves next season, we’ll do that too. Our team are equipped and ready to design, prototype, sample and produce beautiful, functional and practical bags, ready for sales, on time and on budget.
Craftsmanship
Meets automation
Balancing meticulous craftsmanship with the very latest in semi-automated robotics – we have the capacity to manufacture at scale, yet can still fulfill bespoke, specialised orders. Augmented with technology, made by hand.
