Remember the street bag Kanken? Arctic fox wants to pay for environmental protection

Little cool has something to say: A few days ago went to Beijing, met no less than 5 back this package. It is said that it is necessary to pay for environmental protection? Little cool, is it better to develop a new series?


Although not everyone can read the explosion-proof shoulder bags that can be seen everywhere on the street of the Swedish outdoor brand Fjällräven, it cannot be denied that Kånken's bags are selling well and their influence (so far as rivers and lakes are concerned). There is also a good story about the cottage bag work better than genuine.) The Arctic fox has recently brought an eco-friendly version of Re-Kånken on the basis of the same bag. It has adjusted the use of recycled plastic water bottles as its only backpack, and the use rate of recycled materials has reached 95%, and various processes have been reduced. Energy consumption.



Specifically, two sizes of Re-KÃ¥nken bags will be used in 11 and 9 plastic bottles (which are the PET bottles that we usually use everywhere). The bags are extracted from plastic bottles. Made of polyester fiber, the raw material for the straps and the inner lining is yarn - for better dyeing, the Arctic fox uses a dyeing technique called SpinDye, dyeing at the same time as textile, although the ordinary version of KÃ¥nken color is also used Green and green, but the color of Re-KÃ¥nken's look is still very hand-dyed traces - the iconic fox logo on the outer layer of the bag is embroidered.



How has this set of processes been changed? Officially, the overall process water consumption has been reduced by 75%, chemical agents and carbon emissions have been reduced by 67% and 20%, respectively, and the overall energy consumption has been reduced by 39%. The resulting Re-KÃ¥nken continues its "durability," and the new dyeing method has been rigorously tested and does not fade in the sun, and the entire bag can be recycled.


The reason why the “100% use of recycled materials” has not been achieved is because of the zipper, buttons, and plastic buckles of the backpack, which cannot be recycled with plastic bottles. However, since we have taken steps on the road to environmental protection, more are better than none. Svante Björkroth of Hardware Product Developer & Buyer of Arctic Fox said that his team has worked hard for such a change for a long time, and Arctic Fox also hopes to complete a complete process. On the one hand, we continue to work hard to reduce the production costs of this process, and if other companies want to understand and use such environmentally friendly production methods, they can also use them directly.




In terms of price, the standard size Re-KÃ¥nken sells for 89 euros (approximately RMB 680), has a capacity of 16L and weighs 355g and offers 12 colors for selection. The small-sized Re-KÃ¥nken Mini costs 79 euros (approximately RMB 600). ), capacity 7L, weight 260g, 11 colors, is currently only available on the official website. To compare prices, the same size KÃ¥nken is 599 yuan and 559 yuan respectively at the Tmall flagship store. The eco-friendly version is a little bit more expensive, but for the sake of environmental protection, will you pay for the extra money?
