My comment:
(a) Dopp kit
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopp
(The name derives from early 20th century leather craftsman Charles Doppelt, a German immigrant to the United States, who invented his toiletry case in 1919; Although the term was originally a trademark, it appears to have at least mostly become generic)

Two images:

(b) China is mention fleetingly in web page 3.
(c) No high-tech is involved. I wonder how the recycling makes money. One can not rely on volunteers all the time.
