In addition to developing practical accessories, Native Union from Hong Kong has also focused on sustainability in recent years.Seeing that hybrid work has become the new normal following the epidemic, co-founder and CEO Igor Duc led the Paris design team to launch「W.F.A Backpack」, Let everyone take it to “work from anywhere” (“work from anywhere”). This trendy product is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles inside and out. Each backpack is said to be equivalent to 36 plastic bottles, which is not only environmentally friendly, but also brings strength and water resistance to this special canvas characteristic.
