Original Zerobags are made in New Zealand from upcycled parachutes and are available THROUGH OUR WEBSITE.
.
The original Zerobag was launched in 2009.
Made in New Zealand from upcycled parachutes, these reusable bags are incredibly strong and lightweight, compacting down to about the size of a small mobile phone.
Creator Aaron Jones, an architectural designer by trade, thought of the idea while living in London in 2008. Appalled by the ever-increasing plastic pollution in the city, he set upon finding the perfect lightweight, long-life, quality reusable bag that could fit in his pocket.
Frustrated by the products on offer, he began to design the perfect bag. A chance conversation with a friend in France about skydiving and the reusable bag designs he was working on led to the idea of sourcing out-of-service parachutes to fashion upcycled bags.
ZEROBAG 2.0 IS DESIGNED IN NZ TO THE SAME SPECIFICATIONS AS THE ORIGINALS AND MANUFACTURED OFFSHORE IN HAND SELECTED, FAMILY RUN businesses.
Since the success of the original Zerobag, the company has had to turn down large volume orders, due to manufacturing costs in New Zealand and lack of parachute supply.
Due to these restrictions, in 2018 our team worked on perfecting a new bag, enter Zerobag 2.0.
We have taken the utmost care to deliver a product combining the same quality and integrity as the original Zerobag.
The Zerobag 2.0 is reusable and made from 100% certified recycled plastic bottles (rPET) material.
Our brand has continuously evolved to address emerging environmental challenges while meeting market demands. The introduction of ZEROBIN represents a strategic expansion into sustainable waste management solutions.
ZEROBIN is meticulously engineered to optimise waste containment, mitigate odours, and reduce operational costs for businesses. Crafted from recycled materials, it not only offers practical benefits but also aligns with our core values of sustainability and corporate responsibility.
