Banner Bags are an upcycled product; they are made from discarded flex (plastic) and fabric banners and turned into a product of higher value, the bags. It is a simple idea to address issues of waste management in a city desperate for solutions. We believe small ideas can make a difference. Hear from the founders, designers and supporters about how it all comes together.
