25 years independent.
Pioneering bags from textile waste for city life. No empty claims. Just B Corp proof.

Our mission
25 years independent. Bags designed in Berlin for life in the city. Minimal by design, with nothing on them you don't need. Many of them made from textile waste, built from as few materials as possible and designed to be recyclable.





A PET bottle often becomes a bag - but that's usually where its material journey ends. We take a different approach: textile waste is transformed into new textiles, forming the basis of our products.
Depending on the material stream, we use either mechanical or chemical recycling processes. The result is high-quality fibers and yarns.

Every material is selected for its function, environmental impact and recyclability. This results in products made with recycled textiles, PFAS-free coatings and material structures that are as mono-material as possible.
Instead of foam and hard plastics, for example, we use felt made from recycled textiles.



Only 0.6% of the world's discarded textiles are recycled back into new fibers. We design our products so that their materials can become raw materials again at the end of their life - rather than waste. That's why we consider material selection, construction and disassembly from the very beginning.
Today, our products already consist of up to 96% by total weight of a single material recycled from textile waste.
