These large pencil cases are
made from recycled fruit juice packs by a Women's Cooperative in The
Philippines. The large number of bags and household items that are produced
every year prevents vast quantities of juice packs from being burnt, buried or
simply littering the streets and waterways.
The cooperative has won a number
of awards in the Philippines for its concern for the environment and its
outstanding contribution to both waste recycling and employment
generation.
