    Note: Bazura bags are handmade using colorful recycled juice containers to form cool, one-of-a-kind styles. While the pictures on our site will give you the general look and feel, the bags produced vary in color – they are all great-looking and the variety is one of the things we love about them!

    Bazura Medium Insulated Lunch Bags are made in the Philippines by a women's cooperative, utilizing used juice containers. These containers are purchased through a network of local school children. Indestructible and non-biodegradable by nature, foil juice packs clog landfills, fields and streets throughout the Philippines. Using clever designs that combine the material's strength & brilliant colors, the co-op helps keep the environment clean via this very cool method of recycling.

    About Bazura Bags

    Bazura Bags come from a women’s co-op in the Philippines that set up a Livelihood Project assisted by the local village council. With almost no capital, the women found a very clever way to support themselves.

    Every day, children from the local schools collect over 50,000 used drink containers, called doy packs, then sell them to the co-op. The bags are sanitized and the women sew them together into attractive, durable bags.

    Unlike most third world factory workers toiling away in sweatshops, these women are entrepreneurs and shareholders. They work for themselves and have a positive impact on their community and, at the same time, they encourage environmentalism.

    Fact

  • It's estimated that millions of juice containers get thrown in the trash everyday in the Philippines.

    Gave this as a gift. I was very pleased and she LOVED it, but was disappointed in the lack of insulation.

    These are great bags because not only are they cute but they employ those in need in a very polluted and poor country like the Philippines. I was born there so I definitely know this first hand. These bags are made with quality care although the zippers are a little awkward around the edges. Other than that, they were great, I bought one for myself and my sister for her birthday. She loves it too!

    This bag is very roomy and useful. I get lots of comments and inquiries about it at the office.
