Recognizing that the composition of our products offer a unique
opportunity to focus on the global environment. It’s our goal
and corporate responsibility to promote both the reusability and
recycling ability of all of our products. Our direction in
recent years has been to design more bags with extended life
that keep the promotional messages they carry working longer and
out of refuse cans and landfills. This year we have added environmentally-friendly paper bags that are made from 100% recycled material and plastic bags that are made from up to 40% recycled material and up to 20% of a non-petroleum calcium filler which reduces the use of petroleum based resins by as much as 60%. Our 100% recyclable and reusable non-woven bags featured on pages 4 thru 23 are also made from recycled material that offer an excellent extended life comparable to similar woven bags like nylon or canvas. The non-woven material is non-allergenic, non-toxic and non-corrosive, making it safe for people and the environment. Yet it does not end there. We will continue to explore eco-friendly product options to help protect our environment. As a company we are committed to offering environmentally responsible products and protecting the health and safety of our global community. We also believe in doing what we can to reduce the amount of waste our company generates that has a negative influence on our environment. • All of the recyclable scrap bags generated at our facility from the printing process are recycled by our local recycling service and our plastic bag sources. We encourage you to do the same. We have added detailed information on the recycling characteristics of our bags on the inside back cover of this catalog. • Our imprinting waste byproducts are recycled into alternative fuel energy sources, further eliminating their disposal into landfills. • We reuse most raw material cartons and packaging received to reduce the amount of new corrugated material that is required. • We have implemented a company-wide recycling program to reclaim the everyday materials we use in our business (paper, bottles, aluminum, etc.) that has also significantly reduced the amount of waste going into the landfill. • We have implemented energy-conserving lighting within our warehouse facility that is motion activated and only operates when personnel are working in the area. We want to be a good steward to our environment and the community where we live as well as being a supplier you can count on for earth-friendly products. In addition to the eco-friendly bags we carry in stock we can also source even more diverse products made from a wide selection of materials, including resources such as corn resin or banana leaves. There is no end to the array of products we can offer to help you achieve favorable results with your next earth-friendly project. It is not only our responsibility, but our pleasure to serve the 6.7 billion people that we share this earth with. |
