Since we started manufacturing backpacks in 2018, we've continually expanded our product range and the materials we use. Our recycled PET fabric, made of Ocean Impact Plastic, has now earned its own name: RE:PET. Explore this page to learn more about the primary materials featured in our products.
RE:PET®
RE:PET® is used in many products, including following:
RE:PC®
RE:PC® is a recycled polycarbonate material made of discarded water dispenser containers. We do not find these containers typically within the waste collected by our GOT BAG Indonesia clean-up program. Therefore, we source these materials from our recycling partner in Indonesia. If you've traveled in regions like Southeast Asia, you're likely aware that drinking water often comes in bottles or from water dispensers with reusable containers. Despite their reusability, these containers eventually reach the end of their lifecycle and can be recycled. Collected in a range of 50 km near the coastline, RE:PC® is Ocean Bound Plastic certified and not only recycled, but a very lightweight and sturdy material, making it ideal for luggage cases and even sunglasses.
