Non-Woven Grocery Totes: Is it the end as we know it for plastic Grocery bags?

Back in the day, I remember being a bag-boy at the Stop n' Shop in Acton, MA.  We'd use straight-up paper bags for everything - double bagging the heavy stuff, separating the cold & hot - I'm sure many of you remember the drill.  Once plastic bags came in to play, we'd have to ask if the customer wanted paper or plastic, and then go from there.

Well, nowadays with the Green generation, the Custom non-woven Grocery Tote bags have become the rage of the shopping world.  Publix was one of the first Supermarket chains to really bring these to market, and now that has caught on across the board within almost all of the major chains.  The motive behind the introduction of these to the marketplace is all in the conservation movement away from plastic-based products which don't break down easily and contribute to the degradation of our ecosystem.

In 2007, San Fransisco instituted the first single-use plastic bag ban, and it has caught on 81 other cities and counties - and that list keeps growing.  With the ever-increasing demand by the consumer for eco-friendly products - the Non-woven materials have become increasingly popular.
