The Universal Bag

The Universal Bag is the next generation of reusable bag, intended to tackle a range of sustainability problems in one: a desirable, durable, reusable, 100% recycled and 100% recyclable tote bag for everyone to take everywhere, for everything.

Designed by Anya Hindmarch and made by Solent Group, the Universal Bag includes multiple collaborations across supermarkets, each working with us on their own unique design and colour which they will sell exclusively in their stores.

The Universal Bag at Tescos and Morrisons

Our Universal Bag has launched at Tesco, UK – the bag is available at 250 Tesco stores nationwide. And, in September, the Universal Bag will launch in Morrisons stores nationwide.

We’ll be selling 100 Morrisons Universal Bags on 9th September at the Collection Store in the Anya Village. Store opens at 10AM, one bag per customer and first come, first served (over 10 year olds only please).

Follow us on Instagram to be the first to hear updates to the Universal Bag project.

The Next Generation

In the years since our projects I Am Not A Plastic Bag and I Am A Plastic Bag, use of single-use plastic bags has reduced dramatically. But it’s not enough. Many reusable bags get forgotten under the kitchen sink, used only a few times, or even thrown away, as it’s tricky or impossible to recycle them. As a more considered purchase, The Universal Bag is intended to inspire a reuse mindset. Its recycling mechanism – an innovative built-in returns pouch – prevents contamination and ensures 100% recyclability. It is also made from 100% recycled materials and is guaranteed to carry your shopping for 10 years.
