From Highway to Hip



Highway billboards and vinyl banners catch our attention with colorful designs and wording, but, when the advertising campaigns are done, these materials are headed for the landfill since the billboards and banners are made from PVC vinyl, with a Nylon scrim, which cannot be recycled. Almost Exclusive found a couple companies using this strong and colorful material to create one-of-a-kind products. From CD cases to lunch boxes and from purses to messenger bags, environmentally friendly companies are finding fashionable ways to repurpose this water resistant material.
