Eco-friendly Materials

The main material avoided when making eco-friendly products is plastic. Some plastic cannot be recycled and will then end up in landfill or in our seas. This has created an influx of innovation by companies to design products using environmentally friendly materials and processes.

The current industry, has a variety of plastic alternatives such as:

• Recycled material
• Sugar cane
• Bamboo
• Wheat fibre
• Glass
• Cork

We have listed some Eco-friendly promotional products below for inspiration …

Globally, governments have begun to demand cleaner alternatives to petroleum, and so bioplastic has come a long way in the last several years.

By definition it is a type of biodegradable plastic derived from biological substances like wheat fibres and sugar cane, rather than petroleum. It is very much an umbrella term for a host of bio based, partially bio based and biodegradable materials. Below are some examples of materials and products that are bioplastic.

Grain Fibres

Wheat fibre is a strong, sturdy and durable bioplastic material. It is compostable, reusable and biodegradable. 

Sugar Cane

Sugar cane is one of the most efficient raw materials for PLA production.

 

Made From Recycled Material

The industry has been constantly innovating and many products are now being made with recycled materials

Bamboo

Bamboo fibre is becoming increasingly more popular choice not just for its natural look but also because some species of bamboo are fast growing, so the availability of this material is often good.

   Cork

Cork has been given a new use! Now it’s not only the stopper in a wine bottle but also a popular alternative material to plastic.

Glass

Glass is a widely uses alternative mainly because of its ability to be recycled, reused and re-purposed.

Plantable Products

Plantable products are made with embedded seeds so that can then be planted into soil. These types of products are a great way to rejuvenate or bring life to your brand.
