In a move to recycle and create brand advocacy, airline company Emirates has transformed a large out-of-home banner into shopping bags.



Taking a 208 square meter poster from its ‘Hello Tomorrow’ campaign, first displayed on the outside walls of Zurich Airport, Emirates has used the material of the poster to create more than 300 quirky and reusable shopping bags.



With the help of Feinschliff, a Swiss-based socially integrative company which supports long-term unemployed people in returning to the labour market, the large sheet of PVC was upcycled into a limited edition line of one-of-a-kind shopping bags.



Each bag was also branded with the airline’s ‘Where will you be tomorrow’ tagline, giving the ad campaign greater longevity.
