Travel is about discovery, not pollution. Yet every year, tonnes of plastic and synthetic fabrics end up in landfills. Choosing eco-friendly luggage is one small step that adds up. Let’s compare the familiar vegan PU travel bag with Aegle Sriphal’s 100% natural alternative.
Why Eco-Friendly Luggage Matters
- Plastic waste is on the rise.
- Synthetic “leather” sheds microplastics.
- Non-biodegradable fabrics linger for centuries.
When you pick eco-friendly luggage, you also support:
• Sustainable farming
• Low-impact production
• A cleaner planet
