Many eco-friendly tote bags are made from recycled plastic called recycled polyethylene terephthalate, or RPET for short. RPET comes from all kinds of plastic, especially plastic water bottles. Using RPET requires up to 50% less energy than production with new plastic. The Chaya RPET Tote with Pouch is great for shopping and groceries and comes with a travel pouch so it’s always handy.
