Cardboard Baggage

Bags and Luggage
What’s cardboard plus originality? It’s the Cardboard Baggage, which also doubles as a multi-functional rack to keep your shoes, books and other items when reassembled. One would expect it a rigid and fragile container, but the baggage is actually quite elegant and durable. And, the most important thing is that the paper luggage is more eco-friendly than those made from plastic and other materials.

Hi, just want to correct you on the eco-friendly issue. Paper/cardboard doesn’t equal eco-friendly. Something that is made of plastic or other materials and designed to work for several years is actually far greener than a cardboard one that will only work for several weeks or months. (Great site BTW)

paper, which comes from trees, would be considered more eco-friendly than plastics that are manufactured from oil. that cardboard suitcase will decompose and leave nothing behind unlike plastic.

Yes the cardboard will decompose but what about the chemical processing and the byproducts of that processing? Also what about durability? These would never make it through an airline trip.

Plastic will decompose, eventually.
