ECO: Luggage According to Ecological Standards
Sustainability, recycling, and eco-friendliness are now indispensable topics in the industry, because if we don't protect our planet, we endanger the future of coming generations. We are more than aware of this, which is why we created the category ECO. ECO stands for luggage that meets at least one of our sustainability criteria. Read on to learn more.
Clear Sustainability Criteria for Environmentally Conscious Travel
Modern luggage should not only be functional and of high quality but also be in line with sustainability. With products listed in our ECO category, you can assume that this is the case. All products in this category must meet at least one defined ecological standard. Our sustainability criteria are:
- Fair and social production
- Production with reduced pollutants
- Climate-friendly and environmentally friendly materials
- Recycled materials
- Durability of the products
These ecological standards apply to all products in the ECO category: from bags to backpacks and even travel luggage. Moreover, the minimum requirements do not mean that the luggage cannot meet several sustainability criteria. While some products meet only one ecological standard, others offer several or even all. Here on bags.co.uk you will find a wide selection of environmentally friendly products. Buy ECO and actively commit to sustainability.
Tip: If you are looking for sustainable products made of a specific material in the ECO category, simply use our filter function. There you can search for luggage made of cotton, hemp, or leather, among other things. If you prefer a certain brand, there is also a filter function available for this.
Fair Production
Sustainability is usually directly associated with recycling, climate protection, and environmental friendliness. However, justice towards workers is no less important. A fair and social production means that worker protection is not neglected. Since many companies produce outside of Europe, compliance with labor standards is of great relevance. Worker protection is still not taken seriously enough by all companies. Regulated working hours, a safe working environment, and fair compensation are essential for sustainable production. Fortunately, more and more luggage manufacturers are paying attention to ethical production. An indicator of this is certifications such as Fairtrade. Fairtrade guarantees that fair working conditions exist and is a sign of transparency. If a company does not meet these criteria, it cannot obtain the certification.
Production with Reduced Pollutants
In the textile industry, the use of chemicals is widespread. This does not necessarily have to be problematic, but it depends on what chemicals are used and to what extent. In production with reduced pollutants, environmentally friendly alternatives to per- and polyfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) and similar substances are used.
Furthermore, companies show transparency by openly providing information about their production processes and the materials used. Important certifications for production with reduced pollutants are bluesign, GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), and MADE IN GREEN. This ensures that both the environment and the health of consumers and workers are better protected.
Climate-Friendly and Environmentally Friendly Materials
Not all materials are environmentally friendly. Some, such as polyurethane and polyvinyl chloride, can negatively affect entire ecosystems. Environmentally friendly materials are characterized by low consumption of energy and other resources as well as ecological properties. A good example of a climate-friendly and environmentally friendly material is organic cotton. In contrast to conventional cotton, organic cotton is grown without agrochemicals or genetically modified seeds. This makes it no less environmentally friendly than the increasingly popular hemp. The decisive advantage of hemp is that the plant requires little water and does not need fertilizers. This protects the environment. Important standards for climate-friendly and environmentally friendly materials are Fairtrade Cotton, Grüne Knopf (Green Button), and GOTS.
Recycled Materials
Just because materials are climate-friendly and environmentally friendly does not mean they have been recycled. In fact, recycling often takes place with materials that are not exactly considered environmentally friendly, including various types of plastics. For example, there are more and more products that are made from marine plastic, used truck tarps, sailcloth, recycled PET bottles, or discarded fishing nets. Through recycling, the product gets a second or even third life, which relieves the environment. Quality seals for recycled products include GRS (Global Recycled Standard) and Recylex. It is important that consumers inform themselves about the origin and recycling processes of the products to make conscious purchasing decisions. Only in this way can we ensure that we not only support environmentally friendly materials but also promote the circular economy.
Long Product Lifespan
Durability is also an important criterion for sustainable luggage. This is because a long lifespan counteracts large amounts of waste and problematic mass consumption. However, durability does not necessarily mean that the piece of luggage must last a whole decade without spare parts and repairs. A guarantee of several years is in any case very good. In addition to the guarantee, there should also be a repair service to carry out repairs if needed and not have to buy a new product right away. Another big plus is spare parts. The better the supply of spare parts, the more realistic professional or self-performed repairs are, which further promotes the sustainability of the product.
Vegan Products of the Best Quality
Sustainable is not synonymous with vegan. Basically, vegan simply means that the products do not have an animal origin. Nevertheless, it is often the case that vegan products meet several ecological standards. You will therefore find numerous vegan products in the ECO category, including many vegan bags. Our vegan products are characterized by ethical and high-quality processing. We also place great value on environmentally friendly materials that are sourced resource-efficiently. The manufacturing processes are also designed to produce as little waste as possible and to protect the environment. Thus, our vegan products contribute not only to animal ethics but also to sustainability in general. Quality seals for vegan products include the "PETA-Approved Vegan" seal.
Frequent Questions About the ECO Category
What materials are the vegan bags made of?
Textiles like leather have always been very popular in the textile industry, but are a taboo for vegan products. Therefore, all vegan bags on bags.co.uk are made of faux leather or another animal-free product. Some popular materials are:
- Hemp and jute
- Organically grown cotton
- Faux leather like PU leather
- Recycled materials like PET
Faux leather is deceptively similar to real leather in terms of look and feel. This applies to both polyurethane (PU) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). With cotton, it is important that it has been grown organically and no animal products such as lanolin were used. The advantages of organic cotton cannot be denied - it is breathable, durable, and environmentally friendly. Hemp and jute are both very sustainable. They are biodegradable and very durable materials. This makes them an excellent choice for vegan handbags. With recycled materials, it all depends. Not all recycled materials - although most are - are automatically suitable for vegan handbags. While recycled real leather is not an option, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) from old plastic bottles is definitely a good choice.
Why should you buy sustainable products?
Sustainable products are far more than just a trend. They are a necessity for a more socially just and environmentally friendly future. By paying more attention to sustainability, we are actively working towards such a future. If you feel the same way, you will find a large selection of luggage with ecological standards on ECO. Vegan handbags are only a small part of the range.
What should you look for when buying sustainable products?
What you should look for when buying sustainable products depends to a certain extent on your personal preferences. After all, there are different ecological standards and it also makes a difference whether a product is vegan or not. In addition to criteria such as materials, durability, and reparability, seals and certifications are a great help. If luggage has quality seals such as bluesign, Fairtrade, or Naturtextil IVN, this is an indication of sustainable production.
