Materials Description
Over 1 million tonnes of plastic packaging waste is produced in Ghana annually leading to pollution of streets, beaches and sewage systems. Plastic sachets, in particular, have become a big problem with a lack of recycling initiatives and waste management infrastructure.Each month we collect over 200,000 plastic water sachets that are cleaned and upcycled by our Trashy Bags team creating fashionable, iconic and useable products. And, by giving waste a value, this promotes a "Trade Not Aid" approach.
With up to 70 sachets being used for each bag and any waste left over from the process being recycled into plastic pellets, Trashy Bags Africa is leading the way in sustainable development in Africa, having collected and recycled over 30 million sachets since we started.
