Eco Friendly Promotional Merchandise - It's not easy being green, but its easier with these 5 items

The world as we know it is falling down around us, with pollution rates increasing, and landfills filling up, you and your business need to do your part in going green. So do your part for the world, and the world will do it's part for you.

1.Eco Friendly Carrier Bags - If you were to think of one item that should be green, the first thing that springs to mind is carrier bags. The news of plastic carrier bags danger is evident daily. It takes around 2 billion barrels of oil to service the printed carrier bag industry alone, and is a grave danger to land and marine life. So please think of those little sea turtles and push forward to try eco friendly carrier bags as your promotional product and follow in the footsteps of other huge corporations in the fight to be green.

2.Eco Friendly Clothing - Promotional Printed T-shirts are given out as advertising gifts and several different events. Eco friendly printed T-shirts are not only a great alternative, but are the right alternative, sometimes you can tell the difference normal promotional printed items, and their eco friendly alternative, but an eco friendly printed t-shirt would be very hard to distinguish. That's because this printed promotional product's only difference is that it's made from organically sourced cotton, thus saving the world through promotional merchandise.

3.Eco Friendly Pens - These fantastic writing instruments always have the funky factor people look for. These promotional items aren't only useful, but they look good too. This is a great feature because people love to stand out from the crowd and be noticed. how many times have you seen a wooden pen? not very often, so if you were to be seen with one, others would want it, and thus boost the advertising feature of the pen.

4.Portable Solar Energy Charger - How many times have you been out and about, and your mobile phone dies just as you need to make an important phone call, this has happened several times to me, and is also a great excuse to give your employer for not answering. Now if this solar powered business gift was in your merchandising range that staff had access too, you could encourage them towards it thus never having the excuse of having a dead mobile phone. This little gadget can provide two hours extra power, just enough time to find your way to a plug and charge your phone.

5.Eco Computer Button - it may not seem like a big deal, leaving your computer on but because of idle computers 35 million tonnes of CO2 get out into the atmosphere. Each person has their own responsibility to avoid this, so why not push your employees in the right direction. You could attach this promotional product to each computer in your building, or give them as promotional gifts to every employee. If people were to take it home and see your logo on it, they will be impressed with this corporate gift, and try and access one for themselves.

So please, next time you go to place your promotional merchandise order, remember that if your corporate giveaways and business gifts are green, you will never be left red in the face.
