An eco-designed collection

2023 marks a special year with the desire to make Even more exemplary school bags . First, by reducing our carbon footprint. To do this, we analyzed the life cycle of our products, and the results are quite revealing:

• 80 to 85% of the carbon footprint is due to the main fabric and the finishing (printing, embroidery, etc.)

• -25% is the reduction in our carbon footprint resulting from manufacturing with recycled polyester.

• 3 to 4% is the impact of transport on the carbon footprint.

• Our school bags have a carbon footprint 30 to 50% lower than the market average.

Then, by going even further in the approach towards greater eco-responsibility that we initiated in 2022 when we joined the WWF's Club Entreprendre pour la Planète (Business for the Planet Club). And by launching a recycling program for our school bags.

Today in 2023, we are very proud to sign a Eco-designed collection . We have carefully selected materials and finishing techniques, optimized the number of colors according to the designs and shapes to minimize fabric usage. We have optimized the materials to limit the number of different materials and facilitate recycling.
