I'm sure everybody is aware about some of the severe consequences of the over use of plastic bags, however, even I was shocked to hear some of these outrageous facts:

• Ocean debris worldwide kills at least 1 million birds each year.
• About 100,000 whales, seals, turtles and other marine life are killed by plastic bags each year worldwide.
  
• Plastic is the largest source of Ocean litter.
• About 500 billion to 1 trillian plastic bags are used worlwide every year. 

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Now the weather has turned, it was the perfect time for a hot home cooked dinner.

It was that time again for the Bag It Don't Bin Cook In. The leader of this months cooking, Vickey Knight, along with two of the production team Raz and Ahmed, decided to cook the ever so famous Sausage & Mash accompanied by homemade yorkshire puddings, veg and gravy. 

What a success, the puddings rose and tummy's all round were full. 

I'm anxious to see how well next months Cook In goes... I'm one of the chefs!

An exciting time for Bag It Don't Bin It, due to the ever rising demand to become more eco friendly and fairtrade, we have never been busier.

 A hectic few months have led to us not only moving premises, to a larger building, but purchasing an automatic print carousel which became a necessity for the orders streeming in. 

As a new addition to the Bag It Don't Bin It team, i was very eager to get started and excited about working with new clients.

I was very lucky in my second week to attend the Pure London Trade show which was a great success and a grst weekend away, although it was quite unnerving being caught up in the London riots. It was very exciting to discuss different projects with potential clients and was a very educational experience.

This was then shortly followed by the Autumn Trade show in Birmingham, which to my surprise was even busier than Pure London.

By far the most popular bags at the shows were the IT Bags (see image below) if you would like any information regarding the IT Bags or any other products please don't hesitate to get in touch.
