Relan and Verizon to repurpose billboards to create sustainable products

600,000 tons of billboards are produced every year. Tom Schaeppi, owner of Relan bags wanted to help reduce waste associate with billboard advertising by turning the left over PVC ad's into bags. The bags are durable, fashionable and come with a picture of what the full billboard looked like. Eventually billboard manufactures will need to look into renewable sources for creating billboards in the first place, for now you can help by purchasing a Relan bag and keeping this type plastic out of landfills.
