Preventing 100's if not 1,000's of plastic bags from entering the environment as landfill or pollution

Eco-chic Ecologie Bags are available in ten great color combinations, giving you many choices. And at these prices you can buy bags to match every outfit. Made of nonwoven polypropylene, which makes Ecologie Bags lightweight, durable, water resistant and dirt resistant, each Ecologie Bag will last up to 2 years with regular weekly use – preventing 100's if not 1,000's of plastic bags from entering the environment as landfill or pollution.

Colorful, stylish, AND eco-friendly

The basic shape of Ecologie Bags was influenced by paper grocery bags, only with improvements. The base is sturdy so the bags stand upright and groceries stay inside the bag and uncrushed – not rolling around in the trunk. The handles are wide, comfortable and strong and are the perfect length – to be worn on the shoulder or carried at the side.

Ecologie Bags are lightweight, reusable and affordable. Each bag holds the equivalent weight of 4 plastic grocery bags.

The fewer bags we use, the less the environmental impact, regardless of the material used.

Many cities across the United States today are proposing banning or reducing plastic bag use in order to help the environment. Reusable bags are the answer. And Ecologie Bags are one of the best answers because they are so longlasting.

Reusable PP bags are the best choice over plastic, paper or biodegradable. And while canvas bags are available, they tend to be rather expensive, hard to keep clean and do not stand up easily for packing and unpacking. Ecologie Bags are stylish, affordable, and practical. They are designed to last up to 2 years of weekly use which, if compared to using plastic bags during that same 2 years, can save enough petroleum to drive a car 28 miles.

They can also be recycled when they are worn out, and many cities even accept them in curbside recycling programs so disposal is easy. Since they are similar to a tote bag, they are not likely to be carelessly littered by the roadside.
