Why Should You Choose Green Promotional Products?

According to reports, around eight million tons of plastic waste finds its way into the world's oceans each year. And it doesn't end there: plastic pollution can be found on every beach in the world. Not just tourist beaches but uninhabited tropical islands, too...

The list of environmental damage humans have caused is almost endless. We're all responsible for playing our part and helping to make a change - and as well as individual efforts, businesses can also do their bit. That's where eco-friendly merchandise comes into play. So, how can you make a difference?

Reusable Water Bottles for Brand Awareness with Every Sip

The UK uses 7.7 billion plastic water bottles each year, with the average Brit using 150 plastic water bottles every single year! A recent article, published by Water UK, states that if one-in-ten Brits refilled their bottle even just once a week, we would save an estimated annual 340 million plastic bottles.

With that in mind, it would be fitting to gift your customers or colleagues with their very own reusable water bottles. From metal bottles to biodegradable sports bottles, we've got eco options to suit any business' unique needs.

Our best-selling 500ml Metal Bottles are chosen by UK companies time and time again - and for good reason. Available in a range of metallic, glossy and matt colours, there's a colour to suit your corporate theme. With the option to either print or engrave your logo to these metal bottles, you can be sure that your brand will be noticed with every refill!

If you're looking for a branded water bottle that really shouts eco-friendly, then our Eco Sugar Cane Drinks Bottles could be for you. These bottles are made from sugar cane, with the lid being made from bamboo. Perfect for adding that extra eco touch, customise the bottles with your business logo or message for maximum brand awareness.

For The 'Write' Business Exposure Choose Eco Paper Products

Did you know that paper accounts for around 26% of the total waste at landfills? The UK uses about 12.5 million tons of paper each year - and the number of trees needed to produce this would amount to roughly the size of Wales!

We're proud to offer a range of eco-friendly promotional notebooks and notepads, one great example is our Recycled Notepad and Pen Sets. Each set combines a spiral-bound branded notebook with 60 ruled white 70gsm pages, a coloured bio fabric material accent and a ballpen made from 100% recycled paper. Printed with your logo to the front cover of the notepad and the option to also have the pen printed as well, these eco sets draw the 'write' brand awareness.

For environmentally-friendly logo exposure that sticks, look no further than our Eco Friendly Sticky Notes A7. Made from 100% post-consumer waste paper, these printed sticky notes will remind your customers of your business' eco-credentials with every note they write. 

Eco-Friendly Bags Generate Bags of Brand Awareness

Did you know that the world's population uses five trillion plastic bags each year? Put one after the other, these trillions of bags would be able to stretch around the world seven times every hour and cover an area twice the size of France!

If you run a retail or takeaway business, you can choose to make a difference by choosing to swap the single-use plastic carries with reusable shopping bags or biodegradable carriers.

Our Printed Cotton Tote Bags are best sellers for good reason! Made from strong natural cotton and featuring long handles, these branded cotton bags are great for carrying purchases and using as shopping bags or for everyday use. Offering a large print area, these promotional tote bags will flaunt your logo every time they're used.

Ideal for schools and sporting campaigns, our Recyclable Rainham Drawstring Bag is a budget and environmentally-friendly drawstring bag made from partly recycled polypropylene. Printed with your logo in up to stunning full colour for maximum brand awareness, these branded drawstring bags are available in a range of colours, meaning there's a shade to suit every corporate identity.

Made from 180/360 varigauge biodegradable polythene, our Biodegradable Polythene Carrier Bags are brilliant eco-friendly alternatives to single-use plastic bags. Available in your choice of white or clear and printed with your logo in spot colours, you can be sure that all eyes will be firmly on your branding.

If this hasn't given you enough inspiration, check out our full range of eco-friendly promotional products for more ideas. We've got over 600 items to choose from, so we're sure that there's the perfect product for you! Need help finding a specific item?
