Harlequin has established itself as the leading brand in the Australian school bag market, with a reputation for excellence in innovation, design and materials. We understand that materials are the foundation of our products, which is why we are dedicated to sourcing the most advanced and environmentally-friendly materials available.
At Harlequin, our unwavering commitment to sustainability and social responsibility drives us to constantly innovate and refine our production techniques. We aim to provide parents and students with the peace of mind that comes with knowing their school bags are crafted using only the safest, highest-quality materials on the planet.
Our eco-friendly ethos is reflected in every bag we make. From recycled materials with Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certificates to low-carbon production processes, every aspect of our design and manufacturing process is geared towards reducing our environmental impact.
We only collaborate with like-minded manufacturers at the cutting edge of their specialties in the supply of our raw materials. Proudly, we have been partnering with our main manufacturing supplier for over 25 years, which ensures your continuity in material and supply.
Can you believe that up to 50 separate components go into the making of your humble Harlequin school bag? The wide selection of materials we use in their fabrication is the reason our bags are so durable! Each component is chosen specifically for its quality and functionality!
Before reaching you, each individual Harlequin bag undergoes more than 19 weeks of combined work and logistics during its journey. This involves collating the raw materials, dye preparations, the injection moulding of engineered components, sewing and then finally the hand printing & pressing of each bag!
Did you know that Harlequin saves over 300,000 recycled P.E.T. bottles every year that were destined for landfill, but have now found a second life as fabric for a range of school bags? That’s a LOT of bottles. By repurposing these materials, we reduce waste and our environmental footprint.
