How can we help?

In line with our company's sustainability efforts, we aim to reduce paper bag consumption and support the preservation of our natural resources. We want to encourage the use of eco friendly and reusable bags while also reducing the consumption of single-use bags. We will start charging for paper bags on September 5, 2022 onwards. 

UNIQLO Philippines is partnering with Haribon Foundation to help the cause of forest conservation in the Philippines. To aid the battle against deforestation and biodiversity loss, as well as provide livelihood for the local communities maintaining the forests, UNIQLO Philippines will be donating part of the proceeds from the paper bags bought from the store.
