“Imagine a plant growing in harmony with the
earth, harvested by the sun, flourishing without
need of herbicide or pesticide. As it grows, it
suppresses weeds, returning nutrients to the earth
via its roots and fallen leaves. Imagine a plant
whose durability and versatility has sustained
civilisations old and new. Its core, fibres, flowers
and seeds yielding raw material for almost every
conceivable human need. That plant is hemp, and
we at Sativa proudly support hemp’s eco-friendly
cultivation and use.”
The above is the opening text in booklets that we,
Sativa, provide with every hemp-based product we
sell. We are proud of the design and function of
our bags, but above all it is the use of hemp that
is the greatest source of pride. We passionately
advocate its eco-friendly qualities and promote
awareness of this under-used material, by
describing its eco-friendly virtues in booklets
and on our website (www.SativaBags.com). We
believe that by promoting awareness of hemp’s
properties, we can encourage buyers of our product
to favour other hemp based products over their less
environmentally-friendly rivals.
Not only is hemp acknowledged as amongst the
most eco-friendly raw material to cultivate, but
its great durability means that our bags age well
and so will serve their purpose for longer, fostering
Hemp Doesn’t Cost the Earth Our Product
a sustainable lifestyle. Furthermore, we strive to
run our business in a green way, through the use
of recyclable packaging and only shipping rather
than using air-freight. We recently switched over
to UPS as our preferred UK courier due to the
company’s commitment to environmentallyfriendly
vehicles.
We also believe that an appreciation of wider
ethical concerns go hand in hand with an
awareness of green issues: that an ethical and
environmentally conscious business model is
possible; that respect for the rights and welfare
of our workers is paramount. Our products are
manufactured in a family-run factory in
China, where working conditions are certified as
meeting the highest standards. Indeed, clients
such as the WWF and the Amnesty International
Eden Project testify to our eco-aware and ethical
business practices.
In conclusion, our manufacturing and delivery
life-cycle is as environmentally friendly as
possible, and we promote awareness that the
purchase of hemp-based products is a small
but nevertheless important part of a necessary
revolution in the way we nurture and make use of
the Earth’s resources, sustaining the harmonious
co-evolution of man and the planet on which we
all live.
We at Sativa proudly support hemps’ eco-friendly cultivation and use in a range of affordable
and beautifully designed bags. Our design ethic aims at a harmonious marriage of function
and style. Every bag epitomises elegance of form and attention to detail that aims at practicality
and versatility of use. Above all, we at Sativa are passionate about our product and would like
