As more of us become aware of our social responsibility to recycle, it is important to make eco-friendly buying decisions that minimize the negative environmental impact of manufacturing consumer goods. Now, women can both carry a fashionable handbag and be eco-conscious with Maggie Bags!
When it comes to recycling, Maggie Bags believes that the greenest option of all is to create something new from something that is not being used. We are proud that the construction of our handbags is a simply cut-and-sew operation. There is no environmental impact of manufacturing new material and no need for typical recycling processes that consume large amounts of energy and other resources.
Maggie Bags uses genuine automotive seat belt webbing that is built to meet government safety standards and to protect you for the life of your car. Due to these high standards, millions of yards of seat belt webbing are rejected by automakers each year. Maggie Bags takes this high-quality material and gives it new life by creating a sophisticated line of handbags that are eco-friendly and eco-chic. Maggie Bags are constructed with quality components such as YKK zippers and nickel-plated hardware.
The idea of recycling seat belt material into a line of handbags is a natural fit for Maggie Bags’ parent company, Tennessee Webbing. Tennessee Webbing has recycled millions of yards of narrow fabrics since they began operation in 1991. Maggie Bags launched their patented design in the spring of 2009 and is already available in over 400 stores across the United States.
