KAIKU

Perfecting the cycle for a brighter future - presenting the first 100% recyclable bag

What does 100% recyclable bag mean?

100% recyclability means that the KAIKU bag is made from a completely new BrightBioKaiku material, which at the end of its life cycle can be returned to a chemical recycling process and transformed back into its original form, time and again, without any loss of quality.

This makes the bag truly unique, as it can be endlessly recycled within a closed loop. The design of the bag has also been carefully developed to ensure it contains no parts that are unsuitable for recycling.

KAIKU /// Circular economy, science and design connect

KAIKU is our first bag to achieve 100% recyclability. Our new bags carry the name KAIKU. It reflects the philosophy that every choice creates an impact to its surroundings, helping us understand the consequences of our actions. The bags have been created in collaboration with Brighplus and crafted from their bio-based BrightBio®KAIKU innovation material.

Designed to last a lifetime, made to return to the cycle - these bags are truly future-proof.

Rain proof

KAIKU is the perfect everyday hero, as it is rain-proof, dirt-proof, and easy to maintain, all thanks to the material.

Dirt proof

This piece is 100% recyclable, meaning at the end of its life, all resources put into the bag can be returned to the cycle.
