FAQ's
Why use reusable bags when paper or plastic bags are given away for free?
Neela bags are cost-effective, durable and convenient to use. In just one of our bags, you can fit the same amount of groceries that would fill 3 plastic bags! By purchasing our bags, you are making a small change in your daily routine that will have a huge impact on our environment. Reduce, reuse, recycle!
Can I really make a difference?
Plastic bags have become a common part of most people's shopping routine. Take a moment to think about how many paper or plastic bags you go through in a week. Between our two families' multiple weekly grocery store trips, pharmacy excursions and the always exciting trip to Target, our plastic bag tally comes in high, at around 28 per week. That's almost 1,500 bags each year. And that's just our two families! If we alone can keep nearly 1,500 plastic bags away from certain death in a landfill, where they would hang out for hundreds of years, imagine the impact we could have on the environment if we all stopped using paper and plastic bags. Our families made the change easily with Neela bags. Now so can yours!
Are plastic bags really such a problem?
Plastic bags are inexpensive, plentiful and functional. But these benefits come at great cost to the environment. It takes hundreds of years for plastic bags to break down. They clog drains and waterways, kill marine life, use a tremendous amount of energy to create and are costly to collect and recycle. It is estimated that four to five trillion plastic bags are used annually worldwide. Making the switch to use Neela bags is a small change you CAN make!
But I choose paper at the grocery store!
Paper is actually not a better choice. According to the EPA, paper bags emit 70% more global warming gases than plastic bags in their manufacturing process. Additionally, Americans use over 10 billion paper bags annually, consuming 14 million trees. An estimated 80% of paper bags end up in landfills where they are unable to biodegrade due to lack of oxygen. It takes 91% less energy to recycle a pound of plastic than it takes to recycle a pound of paper.
I already reuse or return my plastic bags to the store for recycling - isn't that good enough?
You are part of the green elite! Only 1% of plastic bags are actually recycled. We know that many plastic bags are reused as trash can liners, kids' lunch boxes and to pick up Buddy's droppings. It's great to reuse the ones we have, but we certainly don't need hundreds per year. Like candywrappers, millions of plastic bags end up as litter. So - help spread the word to your friends who may not be as green as you!
Why should I care?
Our ecosystem is fragile, and it’s important to take care of our planet for our children and future generations. By making a little effort to change our daily routines, we can help ensure the vitality of our beautiful, yet fragile, planet.
What are Neela bags made of?
Our bags are made from 100% Polypropylene (PP or #5 plastic) nonwoven fabric.
Are Neela bags washable?
Yes, we recommend that you hand wash and line dry your Neela bag, providing you with several years of continued use.
