Eco friendly promotional products go by a more formal name of environmentally friendly products. Eco friendly products are also named nature friendly or green products. These terms refer to products that inflict minimal or no harm on the environment during the making of them. They do this by using eco friendly materials or recyclable material in the making of them.
Eco friendly promotional merchandise help the appearance of the environment, the safety of it and may reduce the effect of global warming, acid rain and various other environmental problems (*). This is mainly due to some eco friendly products not wasting materials in the production of them.
Many wastes can be hazardous to animals especially, so eco friendly products are defiantly beneficial in that sense (*). Sometimes however eco friendly things can often be expensive, for example, bio fuel is more expensive than normal fuel (*). This could discourage people to buy it, especially the way the economy is going this year. Although in comparison some companies, such as our own, like to encourage people to invest in eco friendly products. We do this by making sure we keep our prices low making them cheap and affordable for you.
It can also prove to be a great benefit to a business having corporate logos printed on eco friendly products. This is because it has been proven that 83 percent of customers are very likely to choose the environmentally friendly option over non-environmentally friendly (*).
So think of it as, when you hand out companies corporate gifts printed with your logo on eco friendly products, customers are more likely to remember that you not only value your customers but also like to help out the environment. This could lead to customers choosing your company over your competitors just because you handed out an eco friendly product as a gift to them. We need to remember that the world is a sacred thing and we only have one of them. So we need to cherish it by avoiding destroying it, so our children and our children’s children can enjoy it for years to come.
