With Short Handles

A durable and reusable mesh carrier bag that helps eliminate the use of plastic bags when shopping. The mesh bag with short handles is similar to the traditional plastic bags from the grocery store, in terms of the length of the handles. Perfect shopping bag, to take on an outing, beach bag, or handbag. The mesh carrier bag takes up little space, but expands to accommodate the contents of about two normal-sized plastic bags and is incredibly spacious and durable. Another big advantage is that you avoid the holes that can occur in plastic bags. 

Facts:  Organic GOTS certified cotton and dyeing.  Even the patch is made of cotton  with GOTS certified non-toxic print.

Size : approx. 50×35 cm   (the mesh bag stretches and becomes even larger)
Volume: holds 48 liters

Washing:  Wash at 40 degrees. Since the cotton is untreated, there is a risk of shrinkage when washed at higher temperatures. Hang to dry.

Manufacturing and dyeing:
Made in India in a GOTS certified factory. The factory is visited regularly. The GOTS standard guarantees that the fabric is organic and that a number of international rights for employees are met and that no toxic, endocrine disrupting, carcinogenic or polluting chemicals are used in the production and dyeing. Extensive checks are carried out by independent certification bodies, which monitor and test all steps of the production chain. The organic cotton, spinning, dyeing and imports are checked regularly.

Other info about the factory:
The factory has a social focus and here are some examples. It is common in the textile industry for textile workers to be paid per sewn product, which creates stress for the employee. Our factory applies monthly wages, which is unusual in the textile industry. Workers are paid even in the event of a temporary drop in production. Parents have the right to take time off (to keep up with family life and housework). There is an action plan to avoid sexual harassment in the workplace and a special committee meets once a quarter to identify and prevent it. They are actively working to hire housewives to pack products, as a way to get them out into the workforce. 80% of the workers live within a 10-minute walk of the factory and can choose to eat at home for lunch.
