RE:WOVEN / MATERIAL STORY
FROM PLASTIC
FROM PLASTIC
TO PURPOSE
The structure of every RE:WOVEN bag begins with recycled polypropylene.
WHY POLYPROPYLENE?
Recycled polypropylene (PP #5) is transformed into a lightweight, durable woven material that gives RE:WOVEN bags their structure.
Paired with soft, handwoven Pha Khao Ma, the contrast between the two materials became part of the identity of the collection.

PROCESS
FROM WASTE
FROM WASTE
TO WEAVE
Four stages of transformation.
02 / 04
RECYCLE
The plastic is sorted, cleaned, shredded, and processed into recycled polypropylene pellets.
03 / 04
SPIN
The pellets are melted and extruded into thin, flexible polypropylene strands. Pigments are introduced to create different colours.
04 / 04
WEAVE
The coloured strands are woven together into durable mats that become the structural base of each RE:WOVEN bag.

TWO MATERIALS, ONE PRODUCT
SOFT + STRUCTURED
HANDWOVEN + RECYCLED
The mat provides structure. Pha Khao Ma brings colour, texture, and human variation. Neither material was chosen to disappear behind the other.
