Envirosax® kick off 2010 with their newly launched UK website

- Can Brits prove we’re ‘greener’ than Americans?

Envirosax®, the eco-friendly designer reusable bags, has launched its UK website to rival their US site. The American website helps stop over 30 million new plastic carrier bags reaching landfill sites. And now the keenly awaited UK website has launched to see if we Brits can beat the Americans in the race to be the ‘greener’ shopping nation. The UK website can be found at www.envirosax.com/uk. Now, with just a click of a button Envirosax bags can be delivered straight to your door.

Envirosax is at the forefront of eco-fashion trends, encouraging us to ditch the single use carriers in favour of re-useable bags. The average British consumer uses over 160 new plastic carrier bags a year compared with the American figure of 330 plastic carriers so it would seem we are already on the way to being a plastic bag free nation.

Alex Willumsen, the UK Business Development Manager says: “The original Envirosax website is extremely popular with a high volume of monthly hits coming from all over the world. The UK has one of the highest visitor counts each month, as we Brits become increasingly aware of ‘green’ issues. That’s why we are so excited to announce that the UK website has launched and it now offers an online community that residents in the UK and Ireland can join. It’s fast becoming a great place for people to chat and be part of the phenomenal global community that is the Envirosax eco-friendly way of life”.

This season marks the launch two of the ‘greenest’ products yet and three joyful new designs for the Envirosax graphics collection. The new bags are made from 45% recycled materials and available in two exciting shapes:

Slingsax are messenger shaped bags, carried across the body with adjustable tie straps and a front pocket feature making them the perfect everyday city bag.

Minisax bags set the trend in reusable lunch bags, with an internal cup holder/pocket tidy which also allows the bag to be folded into this pouch to be stored after you’ve eaten.

Both these eco-friendly bags come in three appealing double-sided designs, making them a perfect set with the patterns reflected in both ranges and they don’t cost the Earth either with Slingsax retailing at £9.50 and Minisax at just £3 each.

Stepping into spring couldn’t be easier with the three fabulous new designs of the original Envirosax eco-totes: the new Oasis series is a right on trend with a variety of lively, nautical prints mixed with traditional deckchair stripes and dots, in vibrant turquoise and navy tones; the Origami range is a collection of vibrant spring colours and prints, these delectable totes are not just great for the everyday but also superb as holiday beach bags; and the Midnight Safari collection is a fresh reinvention of the timeless black and white designs of the monochromatic range. All these new products are coming so keep an eye on the UK website.

Sassy, sustainable and inexpensive, these compact yet durable Envirosax eco-totes can be folded into a small package, yet can carry up to 20kg of weight. Whilst being waterproof and washable, Envirosax bags are perfect for eco-conscious shoppers who don’t want to compromise on style. They are available in singles (RRP £5.99)* or pouches of five bags (RRP £25)* to keep in the car or as a gift for your friends and family.
