Good bye Plastic bags …
October 28th, 2011
| PRESS RELEASE - FootprintBag Ltd., 28.10.2011
ffarwelio â bagiau plastig am byth! Good bye to plastic bags forever! Sainsbury’s have removed their bags from the packing areas at the checkouts, M&S are charging for their bags and now the Welsh government has taken the bull by the horns and implemented an across the board 5p charge on all single use carrier bags. All in an effort to encourage us to supply our own bags and cut the number that end up in landfill. FootprintBag has the answer … Shoppers (even those with the best intentions) are still struggling with the basic bit - remembering to actually take the bags out with them! (Depressingly, between May 2009- May 2010, carrier bag usage even increased in the UK) Two mums, Hanny Wadsworth and Claire Eastwell, think they have found the solution – a practical and convenient alternative to plastic bags – the FootprintBag Pack. An extremely clever ‘bag within a bag’ system, it has multiple reusable and stylish bags made from super tough parachute material within one compact pack. The bags last indefinitely and the pack easily fits in a glove compartment or handbag. There’s even a handy trolley coin attached too. Everything ready to go in one place. The pack is designed to hang on a trolley, drop down and each pouch holds a readily available fold up bag. Simple! The FootprintBag pack has created a buzz in their local town and beyond. ASDA sell them in selected stores and a loyal band of followers from internet sales as far removed as Perthshire to Sydney! The women put its growing success down to the fact that they recognized the need for something to replace plastic bags that people would actually use and designed a pack that they, as shoppers, needed. “The testimony to the success of our multi packs, is that we use and love them,” explains Claire Eastwell, “I have five young children and honestly can’t imagine not shopping with my FootprintBag 8-pack!” “I used to grab a carrier bag at the checkout, now I just grab however many of my reusable bags I need. It works because it’s simple – no changes in shopping habits are really needed.” agrees Hanny Wadsworth. From 8-packs for family shoppers to the latest 2-pack edition to the range, there is a FootprintBag pack to suit everybody. Let the revolution begin and with any luck, single use carriers can become a dim and distant memory.

Ban on plastic bags fails
August 6th, 2011
The growing problem of plastic bag usage is still very much in the news, as recently mentioned in the Daily Mail which stated over 300 millions bags were issued last year. Our local newspaper, The Huddersfield Examiner, highlighted the attempt by Kirklees Council to ban plastic bag usage over a period of time.
Footprint Bag realised the problem why many reusable bags were not being adopted was down to practicality, compactness, style, convenience and durability. Obviously, cost is a factor in the current economic time, so Footprint Bag products are designed to address these issues and eradicate the use of plastic bags, at an affordable cost to the customer. Taking this approach means we can all work to make the world a better place.

What a 6 pack … Reusable Footprint Bags
October 29th, 2010
New stock has arrived (finally!) and we are so excited to see the launch of the 6-pack at last. It was like Christmas come early for Hanny and I as we unpacked boxes to see the yummy colours. The 4-packs are ever so slightly more compact, which makes them even better for handbags. The hot pink version is really cute and the large footprint on the bags looks so stunning in teal.
There is even a cheeky “my 6-pack” version in ferrari red – maybe a great Christmas present for those guys out there?!!
Watch this space to witness the launch …
Our photo shoot for the new stock is planned for this weekend. We have sourced a fantastic local female photographer, Lisa Dalton – who like us, juggles young children and work. Her ideas were really creative and we can’t wait to see how the new products will look in action.
Check out her website Lisa Dalton .
