A rakhi made from recycled material rather than new plastic. On iTokri these are upcycled weave rakhis by Khamir, made from waste plastic that is cleaned, cut into strips, and rewoven by hand.

The weave is sturdy and holds up well, so it lasts long after Raksha Bandhan as a light keepsake rather than being thrown away.

Buy Eco Friendly Recycled Rakhi Online For Raksha Bandhan 2026

An eco-friendly recycled rakhi is one made from something that already existed, not from new plastic. This collection is exactly that: handmade upcycled weave rakhis by Khamir, made from waste plastic that has been cleaned, cut, and rewoven by hand into a bright little rakhi. Everything here is in stock and ships from our base in Gwalior, so what you pick is the exact piece that reaches your brother.

A Recycled Rakhi Made From Waste Plastic

Here is what "recycled" actually means on this page. Discarded plastic is collected, washed, sorted by colour, and cut into thin strips. Those strips are then woven by hand on traditional looms into a small woven patch, usually a flower pattern, and finished with a few beads. Nothing new is manufactured for it. A rakhi that would normally be plastic waste is instead made from plastic waste, which is what makes it a genuinely sustainable rakhi rather than just a green-sounding one.

Why This Recycled Rakhi Is Worth Tying

A woven recycled rakhi is light, does not fray, and holds its colour, so it lasts well beyond the day. And there is a quiet satisfaction in it: the rakhi on your brother's wrist began as thrown-away plastic that a weaver turned into something worth keeping. For a brother, or a sister, who would rather tie something that took waste out of the world than add more to it, this is the pick. Being handmade from soft woven strips, it also sits comfortably on any wrist, including little ones.
