Halyard is a sustainable venture dedicated to repurposing decommissioned sails into durable, functional products. By diverting sail material that does not break down easily from landfills, we give them a second life.
Built for function, designed to last, and made with purpose.
We are rooted in the principles of the circular economy, and operate on a low-waste, high-impact model by sourcing discarded sails. We aim to maximize the sail for product use. Each sail is unique requiring a lens of looking at the sail carefully and determine how to best re-use and re-create that sail.
Halyard – Sail Circularity Studio is more than products - it’s a story of transformation.
Each sail has been on a journey, carried passengers and created memories. We aim to continue those memories to functional products that come with us in everyday life.
We create products with the whole sail in mind.
-
Sails are made from synthetic materials - often Nylon or Dacron - which make them durable, and well protected against UV aspects. Ultimately the disposal options - are few and far between - which can lead to sails ending up in a landfill.
-
Sails are all different in feel and look - we aim to evaluate the sail - and link together adequate functionality of the material in a product - that supports its intended use. Aiming to create a cycle of the material that we can feel good about. Meet the Functional Bucket Bag.
-
We hope to further create a space for exploration of how we can utilize this material in a way that is functional and supports everyday life uses, while thinking about the big picture. Explore with us!
Functional Bucket
As we work to explore and create awareness about re-use and circularity principles, our first offering is a simple creation - a bucket bag created for every day life.
From grocery store, to camp out, to kid pick up - this is an easy, throw it in, everyday hauler!
