There is a good reason why eco-friendly products are popular for businesses.

Eco-friendly corporate gift options can lower your carbon footprint since you are opting for products that are either recycled and since businesses consume a big amount for their marketing efforts, it only makes sense to choose earth friendly products. When looking for corporate gift and souvenir options, it pays to go for the more functional aspect, more than decorative.

Reusable, eco-friendly Water bottles

Plastic mineral bottle containers can be reused but they are not the most eco-friendly solutions since they still end up as waste when the bottle gets worn out especially if you put hot water in them. BPA-free, stainless steel drinking containers are more ideal corporate gift options for employees. If each employee in a department does not use any plastic bottle and opt to fill their steel container with water, they can help minimize the overall garbage output they contribute. It is a fun souvenir as well since there are tons of designs to choose from that can be customized with the company’s logo.

Laptop sleeves with a twist

Nowadays, those plastic water bottles and soda cans are also taking a more technological twist to save mother earth. A fantastic corporate gift for working professionals would be laptop sleeves with PET Bottle frames. Laptop sleeves are basically made of a fabric layer and an interior structure inside. Instead of manufacturing new designs, strips of PET plastic are used to create the shape of the laptop sleeve or cover. This is an unconventional technique but it gives new purpose to using plastic. Decorate the sleeves with your company’s logo and it is a perfect souvenir.

Stickers and stationeries

While electronic media and communication is more dominant now in the office, it still pays to have paper copies of documents. Nowadays, companies are switching to recycled paper materials. They can also have personalized stationeries designed from them from recycled paper, vegetable based inks and reusable stickers instead of consuming newly produced paper. Speaking of stickers, there are some amazing stickers available now that offer environmental tips and energy consumption tips so that people are always reminded to be aware of their obligation to the earth.

Woven bags and eco-friendly totes

Nylon is a synthetic fabric but what it offers is incredible durability, waterproofing and security for any items you put inside it. It is a nice option for an eco-friendly bag. Woven bags made of recycled fabrics and other materials are also very popular right now. Bags are nice souvenir options for clients and for marketing purposes. They are functional and if you choose the right style and silhouette, they can be used as an everyday bag or maybe for shopping.

Umbrella

One might think of umbrellas as common gifts for corporate purposes but let’s face it: with the erratic climate conditions, this is a smart and timeless souvenir option to consider. Again, nylon umbrellas are extremely popular since they are waterproof and can last several years. A good umbrella design option would be something that could fit in perfectly inside a bag so that the person does not have to bother holding the umbrella while walking. Umbrellas can also be customized to bear your brand name or logo.

When buying a corporate gift, the purpose is to make people recognize your brand, be associated with positive values and be functional for their specific needs. Eco-friendly corporate gift solutions are perfect because they not only show that the company cares for the environment, they are also generous enough to provide items that people are actually going to use.
