OUR PHYLOSOPHY
Sustainable planters, lifestyle bags & accessories
At Growbag Upcycled, we believe sustainability starts with inspiration. Instead of letting tons of materials
(like billboard vinyl, advertising canvas, tarpaulin, bicycle tire tubes, sails, and kites) end up in landfills, we transform them into something new.
Our sustainable gardening planters, upcycled lifestyle bags, and eco-friendly accessories fit seamlessly into everyday life.
Our products combine functionality, style, and eco-consciousness, helping you grow, carry, and live with less waste.
Whether you’re planting herbs on your balcony, looking for durable storage, or searching for a bold everyday bag,
Growbag Upcycled offers unique products for yourself or as a gift.
We’ve created two unique ranges, both driven by our mission to reduce waste and support sustainable living. Our Growbag Upcycled planter bags can even double as clever storage solution – proving that sustainability doesn’t mean compromising on style. Each piece is both a functional item and a statement that upcycling can be fashionable, fun, and part of modern living.
OUR GARDENING RANGE
Upcycled sustainable planter bags
The Growbag Upcycled gardening range is where it all began. Each planter is handmade from recycled billboard vinyl that once covered highways and malls. By giving this tough, weatherproof material a second life, we create durable planter bags that make growing your own herbs, vegetables, or flowers easy and inspiring.
No two planters are alike – the recycled prints and colours carry their own unique story. Minor imperfections reflect the material’s journey, making every Growbag Upcycled planter one-of-a-kind. Whether you have a balcony, garden, or indoor space, our planter bags adapt to your lifestyle.
Features include:
Built-in drainage holes (soil goes straight inside).
Lightweight design with strong handles.
Adjustable straps on hanging planters (Small & Medium).
Side pockets for tools or extra growing space.
OUR LIFESTYLE RANGE
Upcycled bags and accessories
Beyond the garden, our Growbag Upcycled lifestyle range gives new life to discarded billboard vinyl and tarpaulin material by turning them into stylish, practical and sustainable bags and accessories. From spacious shoppers, beach bags, messenger bags and backpacks to clutches and duffels, our collection is designed for versatility and everyday use.
Our Growbag Upcycled lifestyle range also includes functional accessories such as sturdy moon bags, protective sleeves and toiletry bags; our travel tags and bunting flags bring colour and eco-conscious style into your daily life.
Features include:
Durable, lightweight, and water-resistant materials.
Heavy-duty seatbelt straps for strength.
Sturdy metal fittings (not plastic clips).
Bold, bright colours for school, work, travel, or daily life.
