The Original GreenBag Story

The GreenBag is a multi-use, reusable, recyclable shopping bag. It is also environmentally friendly. That is why millions of consumers love it - in Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, the UK, the USA, Canada & India.

The GreenBag cuts costs and increases profits for the Retailer. It eliminates the cost of packaging and increases throughput at the checkout. The GreenBag helps cut the cost of waste disposal.

The GreenBag can be customised to your design and to carry your brand. So the GreenBag becomes part of your marketing message, carried, used and reused by your customers - and many others.

The GreenBag originated in Ireland in the year 2000 as a result of a design project by the Superquinn Group and T S O'Connor & Son Ltd. The idea was prompted by the introduction of a tax on all polythene carrier bags in Ireland by the Irish Government. This tax cut the use of plastic bags by more than 90% and the GreenBag culture was established.

The GreenBag is made from Non-Woven Polypropylene. This material is also used in the manufacture of medical garments. It is non-toxic and is safe both for people and the environment.
