Bloom Large Baggie

Keep Leaf baggies and wraps are made in their women’s
co-operative in India. The co-operative gives the opportunity of work to women,
allowing them to achieve gender equity and to feel truly empowered. The
production unit the products are made in has also passed a SEDEX Ethical Trade
Audit.

Keep Leaf products are designed to encourage reuse and
the reduction of single use items. They support a sustainable economy in the
following ways:

* Keeps goods and materials out of the waste stream.

* Preserves the 'embodied energy' that was originally
used to manufacture an item.   

* Reduces the strain on valuable resources, such as fuel,
forests and water suppliers.   

* Creates less air and water pollution then making a new
item or recycling.   

* Results in less hazardous waste.   

* Saves money in purchases and disposal costs.

About the Brand

Keep Leaf was founded by Jaswinder Sahl, a mother from
Toronto with a passion for textiles and design. 
With a growing concern for our environment and a compelling desire to
reduce her carbon footprint, Jas promptly began developing products that
facilitate the now imperative, environmentally conscious lifestyle.  Keep Leaf is based on her belief that you do
not have to compromise on quality and style to observe responsible, sustainable
practices and the result is a range of speciality reusable products that are
premium quality, modern, chic, easy to use and well priced. Jas knows that in
order for consumers to choose reusable over the convenience of disposable, the
reusable product must entice with more than just its green credentials.

Asked what makes Keep Leaf’s products unique, Jas points
to the Company’s playful aesthetic. “That’s what really sets Keep Leaf apart,”
she said. “There is a sense of fun to it. There’s lots of colour. It’s very
stylish. With our new products, we’re continuing that philosophy – to make sure
that going green is not boring. That it’s fun and chic.”
