Plasticity. is a small upcycling business based in the Karoo. Founded in 2017, we were inspired to begin using plastic waste materials to create useful, and even beautiful, handmade products. We see plastic waste differently and add value to this overlooked resource by upcycling it into bags of all shapes and designs.  The upcycled material we create is handmade by fusing plastic together in layers using heat, we can create varied designs using different colours and textures of plastic waste. We use organic hemp in combination with upcycled plastic. Hemp is eco-friendly and a great fabric to work with. It's one of the most durable natural fibers available to us and has great anti-bacterial properties too! 

In 2019, together with you, the L'OCCITANE South African team were able to plant over 375 trees in 13 underserved schools across South Africa. We exceeded our goal by 25%. In 2020,our goal has tripled and we are are looking to contribute toward the planting of over 900 Moringa trees in our South African Greening Programme. The Moringa tree - or The Tree of Life,  has numorous health and beauty benefits, once harvested  this provides the surrounding communitiies with a sustainable income and assist with the reforestation of this Moringa trees in these areas.
