Gone are the days when eco-friendly casing and sleeves for your gadgets meant that you would get something made of cloth or something as such which would require you to keep your gadget in a cover after keeping it in its sleeve, to protect it from water. Also gone are the days which meant having a durable, waterproof sleeve for your gadget meant that you had to use something that isn’t eco-friendly. The new sleeve for iPad made from recycled water bottles is here, and in more than one way, it proves the adage, you can have your cake and eat it too.

This revolutionary sleeve from All-Ett, U.S.A, called the Eco-Thin sleeve is made from recycled plastic PET bottles and two such sleeves can be made from a single bottle. The PET bottles are made into a thread and then stitched together to form the sleeve, and then the final assembly is done which renders the sleeve extremely waterproof and durable. The fact that the plastic PET bottles constitute much of the toxic plastic pollution every year it is an absolutely welcome prospect, where they can be completely recycled and also put to a great use!
The sleeve is also thin but in no way fragile, can withstand the pressure from other articles in a bag, and though not mentioned as an asset, the soft lining inside the sleeve wipes the iPad clean of finger prints as well. However one tiny glitch might be that the sleeve is a snug fit meaning which the casing of the iPad has to be removed before using the sleeve , though the company is said to be working on solving this problem soon.
One more point worth mentioning is that unlike other good quality sleeves which cost at least 25 to 30 dollars, Eco-Thin sleeves is only fourteen dollars meaning you can have an affordable, smart, durable iPad cover and contribute your share towards protecting the environment while you are at it!
