Japanese highway construction strips repurposed from waste into work-inspired tote bags

  • 2021-06-21

With growing environmental awareness, more and more people are reusing items around them or purchasing recycled goods, maximizing the use of materials that would otherwise be discarded and demonstrating a spirit of treasuring and cherishing things. Products made from recycled waste are often not popular with the average consumer and are not considered high-end. However, in Japan, a handbag remade from construction notice strips is not only stylish and practical, but also costs nearly 10,000 yen (approximately NT$2,600) and is even sold in stores overseas. The "HATARAKU TOTE" is a tote made from repurposed construction strips from the Metropolitan Expressway in Japan. The Metropolitan Expressway is the urban expressway system in the Tokyo metropolitan area, operated by the Metropolitan Expressway Company. "Tote" means "to carry" in spoken English, so tote bags are often characterized by large capacity, ease of portability, and durability. Like the banners you've seen on highways, those that once graced the Metropolitan Expressway serve as traffic safety reminders, announce newly completed branch lines or tunnels, or indicate roadwork closures ahead. Each of these banners is made from durable materials that can withstand the elements, making them perfect for tote bags. Although a reproduction, the "HATARAKU TOTE" (work-inspired tote) possesses many unique characteristics that surpass those of standard goods. Often used in construction projects, it exudes a unique construction site atmosphere. Furthermore, its origins lie in construction banners commemorating specific times and events, each with a unique pattern, ensuring you won't see the same bag as anyone else. Many people, when it comes to fashion, seek a unique and personal style. Little do they realize that this style is fully embodied in the "HATARAKU TOTE," a work-in-progress, unreplicable piece. As the saying goes, out goes the old, in comes the new. However, recycled goods, once gone, simply reborn, will continue to accompany you in the next life. Source: Environmental Information Center
