Insider continues to see more innovative ways to re-use vinyls.   Here is a list of several of the companies focused on this creative new industry along with their logo and a link to their web site.

Headquartered in Mendota Springs, Minnesota, Relan says they are on a mission to create a more sustainable future for generations to come. Relan began in 1995 as a way to keep vinyl banners out of the landfill. The name “Relan” means reinventing fashion. Using these materials, bags were created to sell primarily in boutique stores. Today, Relan still focuses on keeping vinyl out of the landfills, but we are so much more than a bag company. In 2014, they were named to the GameChangers500 list as part of the world’s top For-Benefit companies and the organizations they partner with have helped keep over 300,000 square feet of material out of landfills, close the loop on a current waste stream, and benefit the triple bottom line.

Each Gorilla Sack is made from a recycled billboard vinyl. Their billboard vinyls mainly come from Georgia and California. Each pattern piece is hand cut to create a bag that doubles as a piece of art! Therefore, every Gorilla Sack is one-of-a-kind.  You´ll be the only one with this exact bag. Quality, durability and affordability…how can you not own one of these unique bags!

Just do it. Think different. People are constantly looking for signs that motivate and inspire them, and billboards give us that in a million ways every day; but for Jillian Brown, founder of Remember Me Green, they take on a whole new meaning. Her eco-friendly lifestyle brand based in Bay Shore NY is made from one-of-a-kind up-cycled NYC billboards that feature unforgettable, innovative colors and images. Supporting sustainability through style is the Remember Me Green mission.

At Minneapolis based Billboard Tarps, they came up with a simple idea: take the large vinyl sheets used for billboard signs and repurpose them as tarps, covers, liners, and many other applications. The idea took off, and today they are one of the largest suppliers of reused flexed vinyl in the country.

When you “upcycle” used billboard vinyl, it doesn’t just save you money—it saves the planet too. Over the years, they’ve put millions of pounds of material to use rather than to landfills.
