The Plastic Problem We Can’t Ignore
Millions of tons of shampoo bottles, laundry containers, and everyday plastic waste end up in landfills every year — where they stay for centuries without breaking down.

What makes the Turtle different
-
Real protection, inside and out
Turtle backpack is engineered to shield electronics against sudden impacts, featuring durable construction like no others. -
A bag that feels like you
Just like YOU, no two Turtle backpacks are the same. Each one carries its own color pattern and story through injection molding. Your style, not someone else's idea of sustainability.
-
Buy once, feel good longer
Durable by design, the Turtle lasts for years, not seasons. That means fewer replacements. Plastic that was expected to be in the environment for years, it is now in your hands. Purchase you can feel proud of every single day.
-
Proof that doing good can look good
Forget dull eco gear. The Turtle brings energy, color, and confidence back to sustainability. It's the backpack for people who care deeply and want to look good while doing good.
-
Part of something bigger
Every Turtle keeps up to 500 grams of plastic out of landfills and oceans. It's about building a community that collects, cleans, and reimagines recycling together.
-
Post-consumer, not post-truth
Our material comes from real household plastic waste — the stuff you'd throw away. No greenwashing, no vague claims. Just honest recycling turned into something beautiful.

Post-consumer plastic is gathered from households — shampoo bottles, laundry containers, lotion tubes — the stuff sitting in your bin right now.
-
Sort & Clean
Material is sorted by plastic type, washed, and stripped of labels. All by hand. Only the cleanest post-consumer plastic makes the cut.
-
Transform
Plastic is shredded, melted, and pressed into strong, colorful hard shell. Every batch creates a one-of-a-kind pattern — no two are the same.
-
Protect
Plastic is injection molding into Turtle's iconic hard shell, assembled into a durable backpack built for daily life — and daily impact.
The man and the mission
Behind Tierra Mission
Supply chain guy turned sustainability rebel
Started by Brigam — a Tesla supply chain pro who had a mid-career "we need to fix this planet" moment. Tierra exists because someone had to prove sustainability doesn't have to be ugly or boring.
The truth? Working with recycled materials is a pain. Extra steps. Extra costs. Extra headaches. Most brands take one look and nope out.
Tierra takes a different approach: we make Turtle backpacks that are stylish, sustainable, and authentically unique. No compromises on function. No sacrificing style.
Less trash in landfills. More turtles on backs. That's the mission.
