Go Green! Staples Promotional Products Helps You Join the Movement

Everyone is going green. From the grocery store clerk who urges you to tote your groceries in a canvas bag to the big corporations that are reducing waste and using solar energy, everyone is trying to be environmentally friendly. And Staples Promotional Products is no exception. With new lines of eco-friendly bags, shirts, hats and gift items being added all the time, the green movement is taking our industry by storm.

With the green movement comes a whole new vocabulary for companies to use to demonstrate their participation. Here are a few key words to help you sift through the green movement mania:

Organic: Produce and other ingredients that are grown without the use of pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, genetically modified organisms or ionizing radiation

Eco-friendly: Refers to goods and services considered to inflict minimal harm on the environment

Recycled: Made from at least 51% recycled materials

Many of our Prestige Partners have products that fall into these categories and new products are constantly being developed. Leed's EcoSmart line features items made from recycled leather and cardboard, and Leed's will even plant a tree for every EcoSmart imprint order they produce. Gemline, another Prestige Partner, has an Eco-Choice line of organic and recycled bags to promote the green movement.
