SHIFTING from Neoprene to YULEX®

BAGS BY SUSAN BIJL

A Commitment to Better

SUSAN BIJL approached YULEX to help them create responsible products by increasing the use of natural materials and reducing their environmental impact.

"Our collections are produced in small amounts, calculated on what we will sell. This way, we avoid overproducing. Our timeless designs are reproduced for every collection in different colour combinations. These designs will never go ‘out of season’ or ‘out of style’."
— Susan Bijl

Tom Kay, Founder of Finisterre

Built to Last

SUSAN BIJL believes in long-lasting products: quality over quantity. Everything is done with a strong love for minimalistic and functional design, from the first sketch to the last stitch.

“For over 20 years, we’ve been working on sustainable alternatives for single-use plastic bags and fast fashion. To create products that are built to last, we are always looking for what and how we can do better. With the introduction of YULEX Natural Rubber instead of neoprene to provide laptop protection for the inside of selected bags, we have carefully crafted small yet significant improvements to our collection.”
— Susan Bijl
