You may have noticed our range of promotional eco-friendly products getting larger by the month. Well you see there are several criteria in labeling a common custom printed merchandise as one that is an Eco Friendly Corporate product.

What Makes a Promotional Product Eco Friendly?
There are some criteria that needs to be met to make a promotional product eco-friendly. Some of these criteria include:
Recycled Plastics Are Used
Products which are made from a minimum of 25% of recycled plastics. This can be anything from Logo Highlighters, Logo Pens, even branded calculators or custom mouse mats. By incorporating recycled plastics into these products, we are able to minimize our environmental impact and contribute to recycling efforts. Making use of recycled materials not only reduces waste, but also helps conserve natural resources. So, when you choose our branded merchandise that meets these criteria, you can be confident that you are making a sustainable choice.
Low Emissions, Low Carbon Fiber
Products which are produced using methodologies which are lower in emissions hence a lower carbon footprint. On top of this carbon credits is purchased after production. We denote these as Carbon neutral promotional products. This means that we take into consideration the entire production process, from sourcing raw materials to manufacturing and shipping the final products. Additionally, for some of our products, we go a step further by purchasing carbon credits after production, which help offset the carbon emissions that were generated during the manufacturing process. These products are denoted as Carbon Neutral Promotional Products. By choosing products produced through lower emission methodologies and carbon credits, you can feel confident that you are making a contribution towards a more sustainable future.
Certified Fair Trade Corporate Merchandise
These are produced by labour in typically poorer communities who not only adhere to clean production methods as they typically use less machinery in production but a higher proportion of profits is returned to the community who produced the item. Pretty much any custom branded product can be made through Fair Trade such as Promotional polo shirts, Promotional t shirts, custom branded pencils and a range of other novelty conference gifts.
Bio-Degradable Plastics
This is a newer one that we have only begun to stock and learn about this month. This involves any plastic made advertising merchandise product. It could include promotional calculators, personalised pedometers, custom branded torches, pens and much much more. A bio degradable product means the plastic will breakdown naturally in landfill when disposed of typically within 18 – 60 months. They typically cost 10% more than the equivalent non bio degradable products due to a different production process. This is a type of eco green promotional product which we will be heavily promoting this month.
Benefits of Eco Promotional Products
Eco-friendly promotional products offer several benefits that make them a preferred choice for businesses and organizations. Here are some key advantages:
- Environmental Sustainability: By choosing eco-friendly promotional products, you contribute to a more sustainable future. These products are typically made from sustainable materials such as recycled plastics, bamboo, or organic cotton, which helps reduce the demand for virgin resources and minimizes waste.
- Enhanced Brand Image: Aligning your brand with eco-friendly values can improve your brand image and reputation. Consumers are increasingly conscious of sustainability, and supporting eco-friendly initiatives shows your commitment to environmental responsibility.
