GOING GREEN

Go Green While Advertising- Use Eco Friendly Promotional Products

Most of us have received promotional products like imprinted pens, personalized key rings, custom coffee mugs, imprinted bags and lanyards throughout our professional lives. Though some of these items are more useful than others, most are not necessarily eco-friendly. Whether we are on the ordering or receiving end, this may cause our conscience to be unsettled. We can do something about this when ordering new business promotional items by opting for more eco friendly promotional products.

One “green” item that is really interesting and on the popularity rise these days, is the foldable water bottle. When empty and unrolled, it resembles a large tube of toothpaste but holds 16 ounces / 500 ml of liquid. This ultra lightweight beverage container folds like paper and then flattens for convenient storage. When filled with water or your favourite beverage it miraculously stands just like a bottle would. The performance sport spout features a protective cap and a carabineer hook makes briefcase or backpack attachment easy.

These eco friendly promotional products are available in other sizes and styles. A rounded 16-ounce / 500 ml foldable water bottle featuring a sport top comes in silver, black, green, red, blue, and clear. Use the one-sided color imprint for the company logo and customers will always know who to call – Imprint size is 3″ H X 3″ W, and the height of these bottles is 7 1/8″. These leak-resistant bottles are BPA free and dishwasher safe, making them both safe to use and easy to clean.

Water bottles like these, fold small enough to fit in a pocket or purse, fanny pack or child’s back pack, yet when they expand, they stand like a regular water or juice bottle. Great for sporting events, camping trips, outings to the park, kids off to camp, or just about any everyday use. Encourage your prospects and customers to reduce and reuse by providing them with a container like this instead of a disposable plastic bottle. They will quickly see that your company cares about more than just making a profit, a realization that should make them want to do business.

Every person who orders or uses eco friendly promotional products like the foldable water bottle makes a difference on the planet. It may seem like a small step but it really is not. When this product is used, word spreads as quickly about your company as it does about environmental consciousness. So convenient to carry and use, everyone in your organization will want 1 or 2 for themselves, not to mention their family members.
