Transforming Old Signage into Upcycled Bags
What do you do with more than 800 square feet of old polyester signage? You repurpose it into something new. Over the years, we’ve collected banners that have crisscrossed the country and witnessed hundreds of handshakes and conversations at tradeshows and events. Now that GEAR AID has rebranded, the time has come for our old banners to start a new journey as upcycled zippered pouches we call the Banner Bag.
“We had to stop and make a change,
to take a step further...”
Partnering with Boulder-based Green Guru, we took our outdated banners to repurpose or “upcycle” the materials into distinct, small pouches. As a result we saved 35 lbs. of polyester material from being dumped in the landfill. Polyester is incredibly durable, so it takes years for it to degrade naturally in the environment. Upcycling our banners into something fun and useful is simple step towards sustainability – aligning with our values to preserve the outdoors and reduce waste.
