• Waste reuse and reduction: to produce 20.000 bags and accessories Vaho uses 186 tons of materials that would go to waste. Since its foundation, the company has upcycled almost 4.000 tons of waste for its products. The materials that are upcycled are banners used for marketing and publicity, coffee packages, or truck and bicycle wheels. Vaho has institutional agreements with multiple museums, municipalities, and fairs, helping them reduce their waste as well.
• Local, handmade, and low-impact production: all the production processes take place locally in Spain. Local action and engagement are one of the organization’s main focuses. Vaho uses natural substances for the cleaning process (such as vinegar) and the assembly of the pieces is handmade.
• Jobs creation: through the expected growth of the company, they expect to generate at least 4 new direct jobs in the coming years.
