Promotional Merchandise and funky eco friendly office items

It's amazing how the world has changed in the 8 years or so that we started trading here at Total Merchandise. Wars have started and finished. Countries born. But perhaps the biggest change in all our lives has been the need to embrace eco-friendly products and to do our respective 'bits' to save this planet.

At TM we came to recognise the importance of eco-friendly items years ago (we have our own section). Traditionally these items were re-usable hessian type shopping bags and products made from recycled car tyres. But now, we have traditional promotional merchandise with an eco-friendly edge. Take our wooden credit card USB for example. This is not only an item made from a sustainable resource, but it's a product that can be used time and time again whilst still fitting in one's pocket or wallet. In fact, this just looks great anywhere in an office environment!

For those wanting something a bit different from the traditional USB/Mousemat or pen form of promotional merchandise, how about a promotional dynamo torch? Yep, you can help save the planet one battery at a time! At a time when we're being told to use sustainable energies and drive electric cars, these may total sense.

Of course, we haven't lost our traditional 'old skool' product roots either. If you still yearn for those re-usable Jute Shopping bags, we still have them, and they look as good as ever. There wasn't much talk about doing away with carrier bags 8 years ago, but this is a perfect example of how times have changed. Nobody would feel short-changed for receiving one of these great products with YOUR logo on the side in the post!
