Presso Design is a small, family-owned business that crafts sleeves and bags for electronics out of upcycled coffee sacks. Burlap sacks are used in the coffee industry to transport raw coffee beans; however, since they are single-use only the bags are thrown away once they reach the roasteries. Presso Design buys these waste bags in bulk and use carefully selected bags as the raw material for the unique handcrafted bags and sleeves. Natural burlap canvas, hemp, and pure Italian leather are also used to make the bags more durable.
