Doy Bags

The product came up as an idea to reuse Philippinian Juice Cartons, which is claimed to be a major waste problem in the Philippines. They are made of foil and plastic, which are not biodegradable. The product comes in different colours, sizes and shapes and even products which are not bags are offered, such as belts or aprons.
