Where Will Your Promotional Trade Show Bag End Up?

Landfill	Reused/Recycled
• 100 BILLION plastic bags end up in landfills each year.   • Once used, paper & plastic bags are unlikely to be re-used. They tear easily and are made for one time usage.	• Promotional tote bags made from recycled & reusable materials are an excellent alternative to plastic bags.   • Our Reusable Eco-Friendly bags are very often used for other practical applications long after the trade show is over. This means more marketing presence for your company!

If you're looking for a place to start, consider the next trade show you plan on attending. Industry trade shows are notorious for the sheer volume of promotional products they use. To help combat the waste produced at these events, stick with eco-friendly promotional merchandise made from recycled, biodegradable, or organic materials. These products are identical to their synthetic cousins, but they won't harm the planet or stick around for years after they've been thrown away. Don't wait until the trash bags are full. Here are some ways to be more eco-friendly at your next trade show.

· Paper, plastic … or recycled fabric?
Did you know that 100 BILLION plastic bags end up in landfills each year? Instead of using plastic bags to distribute trade show goodies, its time to switch to a more eco-friendly option. Promotional tote bags made from recycled materials are an excellent alternative to plastic bags. These reusable totes will serve a purpose outside the confines of the exhibition, which is good news for the environment and your logo.

· Purchase eco-swag as giveaway items
Instead of handing out traditional giveaways, opt for environmentally-friendly promotional products that demonstrate your commitment to helping the planet. Solar powered gadgets, recycled note pads, or even plant seed packets are great giveaway choices for a green company. Attendees will be drawn to your booth and impressed by your admirable product choices. Who knows, you may even inspire other companies to switch to similar products!

· Replace printed materials with eco-friendly products A big part of the waste that accumulates at trade shows comes in the form of printed material that is thrown away shortly after it's received. Instead of wasting paper, try to fit your message on an eco-friendly promotional product. Not only will this benefit the environment, but it will benefit your company as well. Attendees are much more likely to hang on to free merchandise, and they're more likely to remember your company.
There you have it! The planet needs our help, and that means we all have to stop making excuses and start making a difference. Environmentally friendly promotional products are a great way to promote your business while keeping environmental impact to a minimum.
