Sorting your waste is a small action that makes a big difference—especially when products are made from multiple materials. Our tool bags are built to last using a combination of tarpaulin, PVC, metal, plastics, and other durable components, and when a bag finally reaches the end of its life, giving those materials a second chance really matters.
By separating metal parts from plastics and textiles and disposing of each material in the appropriate waste stream, you help reduce landfill waste, support recycling systems, and conserve valuable resources.
Taking a few extra minutes to sort your waste ensures that as much of the bag as possible can be reused or recycled, helping to lower environmental impact and move us all toward a more sustainable future.
COREECT disposal of EMG bags
For optimal waste sorting, we recommend separating the different components of the bag - such as the fabric, outer cover, buckles, and other hardware - so each material can be disposed of in the appropriate waste stream and recycled whenever possible.
WRONG disposal of EMG bags
If possible, try to avoid disposing of everything together, as separating the materials allows each component to be handled correctly, improves recycling efficiency, and helps reduce unnecessary environmental impact.
