5 eco-friendly promotional products

Being environmentally conscious has become a rather fashionable movement to be involved in. Recycling, fair trade, and going-green are all terms that have massively increased in popularity in the last few years and it is now seen as a trendy style to be a part of it.

More and more people are becoming aware of ways to live a more eco-friendly life. Therefore, this means more and more businesses are adopting this ethos to stay in favour of potential customers and ahead of their competitors.

Every promotional product or business gift has the potential to add a certain amount of value to a business' marketing campaign. By taking an eco-friendly stance your company can win the hearts of some clients that you may have otherwise missed.

Here are 5 eco-friendly promotional products that are sure to give a good impression and leave a lasting impact:

Notepad and pen set

This notepad is made from 100% recycled paper and even parts of the pen are biodegradable. Not only is this promotional product extremely useful to consumers but it will also mean your brand and logo will be looked at each time the notepad or pen is picked up.

Wooden USB drive

This wooden USB stick comes with a great message and one that you should be proud of, it is made from wood that is collected from sustainable forests and for each tree that is taken down a new tree is planted. This is something you could easily and effectively work into your environmentally-friendly marketing campaign.

Plastic mug

This mug is made from recycled plastic and is produced using offcuts of British food packaging products. Due to its durability, this promotional product would be very useful in workplaces where it's not always a good idea to use breakable mugs, such as on building sites.

Power box charger

Solar powered products and their popularity are on the rise and it would be beneficial for your brand to join this increasing trend. This promotional solar powered box charger enables the consumer to charge their phones on the go by simply using mother nature itself.

Mini grow kits

Everybody loves a project and these mini grow kits will provide you with just that. The promotional packs are available with 5 different seed options so you can comfortably adapt and work around your business campaign. The kits hold everything you need to grow a healthy plant including a terracotta pot. They will surely put a smile on your client's faces each time they tend to them, therefore keeping your business in their minds too.

It's all well and good to be seen as a respected company that cares about the environment and their carbon footprint, however, perhaps more importantly, by going green your business can actually be doing its bit to help save the environment too.
