A Move in the Right Directon: Envirosax Brings Eco-Chic Bags Home! LA Story GREEN LIVING Blog

Amazonia 3

Envirosax is a line of cool, fun, chic totes that actually fold up into tiny pouches for you to toss in a suitcase, a car trunk or in your desk at work. Rather than use disgusting plastic bags that rip, tear and help destroy the environment, you can use an Envirosax and have something  fashion forward, unique design and environmentally friendly.

Amazonia 1

Envirosax® says it best themselves so I am going to let them do the "talking" here since it's their product and they state their case quite well>

The philosophy of Envirosax® is to help create a better future for our planet by spreading the environmental message through colour and script using the Envirosax® eco-friendly bag as the vehicle.

Flora 1
Envirosax is proud to help protect the environment for tomorrow’s offspring by providing an eco-friendly alternative to plastic shopping bags that threaten a healthy eco-system.  Envirosax bags are lightweight, portable, waterproof and each one holds the equivalent of two supermarket plastic bags thanks to reinforced seams.  To view the full range of Envirosax and enter our online shop click on eco friendly bags.

Flora 3

Envirosax believes in environmental sustainability and as  an advocate for environmental sustainability has also designed a range of rash vests and UV sun-shirts, with a percentage of the profits from the sale of each rash vest donated to the Australian Marine Conservation Society, a non-profit organisation which protects our ocean wildlife. Click on rash vest Click on rash vests to view the full range of stylish rash vests and sunsuits. Envirosax rash vests are made in Australia.

Flora 4

Envirosax® originates from Currumbin Valley in South East Queensland, Australia. The Envirosax team uses renewable and recyclable products where possible, and is committed to operating on ecologically sustainable principles.

All Natural ORGANIC Hemp Bag

Situated on 10 acres of pristine Australian rainforest, the Envirosax team’s abode is totally ecologically sustainable with solar hot water and photovoltaic cells for electricity. A sewage system recycles waste water, watering the extensive permaculture gardens and filtered rainwater tanks provide the premises with water. Envirosax bags are designed in Australia and made in China.

Monochromatic 1

Envirosax is committed to spreading the environmental message across the globe. Envirosax feels it has a responsibility to help educate the global community in the four areas of sustainability, environmental, social, cultural and economic.  Visit the Sustainability Education Resources page to see our environmental resource tool for educators, parents and children of all ages.

Monochromatic 5

Envirosax is committed in keeping up to date with sustainable practises around the world, and this year an Envirosax team member attended The Second International Conference on Environmental, Cultural, Economic and Social Sustainability - in Hanoi and HaLong Bay, Vietnam. In January 2007 an Envirosax team member will be speaking at the Third International Conference on Environmental, Cultural, Economic and Social Sustainability in Chennai, India.

Retrographic 3

Re-thinking the future of shopping, Envirosax stylish carry-all bags simultaneously rescue shoppers from the mundanity of unfashionable choices, and the planet from the dangers of unconscionable choices. Envirosax bags are an exciting new medium for the message of environmental sustainability and a move in the right direction for the evolution of a culture. Click on eco friendly bags to view and PURCHASE an Envirosax eco-chic tote now and reduce the use of millions of plastic bags - it is a move in the right direction.

Retrographic 5

Envirosax® ~ The Logo

The three bags signify the environmental alternative to plastic bags. Each of the images that appear on the bags has a philosophy behind it.  The leaf represents flora and the eco-friendly nature of the bags; the fragile butterfly represents fauna whose habitat is conserved through the eradication of plastic bags. The classic “recycle” logo is captured with a brush stroke, which also recognises the artists involved in designing Envirosax®

Envirosax® is not only a smart solution, it’s a philosophy, a move in the right direction, it is the evolution of a culture.

So now that you have read this far-- and seen the cool little designs, you can buy a  set  of these cool bags in a great pouch for very little money and be  very chic and  be environmentally aware. It takes all of our efforts to make a difference and each of us can take part in making a  small change that will add up to something major.

So go shopping: buy Envirosax and still go shopping!
