Description:
Moni shopper bag made from recycled sugar, rice or fish feed sacks with zip
Sustainable shopper with zip – lightweight, unique and fair trade
The Moni shopper bag is a spacious, strong and lightweight shoulder bag, handmade from recycled sugar, rice or fish feed sacks. Each bag is unique: the prints and colours vary depending on the materials used. The Moni is perfect as a beach bag, work bag or shopping bag.
Double-lined and practical
The Moni shopper is fully lined with a second layer of recycled cement sack. This provides extra strength, durability and a surprising detail on the inside. For example, the outside might be a rice sack, while the inside is a cement sack – making every bag truly one of a kind.
The bag features a large main compartment, closes securely with a sturdy zip, and has two slip pockets and a zipped pocket on the inside. There’s also an extra zipped pocket on the back for items you want to keep within easy reach. Thanks to the long shoulder straps, you can carry the bag comfortably over your shoulder or in your hand.

Brand: MoreThanHip-cementbags
Bags and accessories made from recycled cement bags
The MoreThanHip Cement bags collection is made in Cambodia. The cement bags and the cement that was used in them originally come from Thailand. Cambodia imports a lot of building materials from Thailand, for the reconstruction of the country after the devastating years of oppression by the Khmer Rouge.
Fairly produced
These discarded cement bags have been discovered by local craftsmen as a material for making bags of all kinds, toilet bags and pencil cases. MoreThanHip's cement bag collection is made in a social workshop in the capital of Cambodia, Phnom Phen. Here, mainly disabled craftsmen work. In this way, the workshop strives to give people with disabilities a dignified place in society and to improve their standard of living.
Cleaning up the environment
The workshop also has the admirable mission of making Cambodia cleaner by using recycled materials in their creations. After all, litter is a big problem in countries like Cambodia and one of the causes of the plastic soup in the oceans.
Strong, light and waterproof
The material - woven plastic with a coating - from which the cement bag items are made was initially developed for cement bags. That means it has to be very strong, as a full bag of cement weighs 50 Kg. At the same time, it is very light, which contributes to the carrying comfort of a bag made of this material. The coating also makes it waterproof, which is of course a very nice feature for a bag.
Original and unique
Cement bags from different brands have been used for our collection, each with their own design. For example, we have articles with an elephant, a camel and an eagle. That alone makes for an original look. Moreover, no two items of a model are exactly the same, because different parts of a cement bag are used each time. This way you can be sure of a unique item.
