Sustainable plastic, lightweight chairs and delicious food offerings await patrons of a furniture brand with the release of its summer collection.

Ikea Philippines launched these last Monday, April 24. They are perfect for summer activities, from going to the beach, holding a cookout, or getting the summer vibe with food.

Resealable, bioplastic bags

Called “ISTAD,” Ikea is offering resealable, transparent bags that are available in different prints and colors.

Each bag is also made of sugarcane for sustainability. Customers can use it to store sandwiches, fruits, sauces and other items for their travels. It costs P150 per 60 pieces.
