When preparing for a tradeshow or big event, you should think about how the items you are handing out portray your brand. The promotional products you give to attendees say a lot about your company and help to shape a customer’s opinions about you. By choosing green products, you show you are committed to sustainable business while helping attendees to make eco-friendly decisions as well.
Eco-Friendly
Pay attention to a product’s content when selecting promotional products. The product search on our website allows you search eco-friendly products so it is easy to find products that are biodegradable, recycled or organic. One of our favorites are these pens made out of a biodegradable cardboard!

Plants and Flowers
Nothing is greener than an actual living plant! A live plant also isn’t going to get stuffed in a desk drawer so it will keep your logo in mind sitting on their desk. For our 70th Anniversary Celebration we ordered logoed containers and sourced succulents from a local florist.

Using locally made products reduces your carbon footprint. When your product doesn’t travel long distances, you’re promoting better air quality and reducing pollution. In additional to being more eco-friendly, you’re also supporting your community and the local economy. We love Seattle Chocolates and buy them every year for holiday gifts!

When selecting promotional giveaways for your next event, consider how the consumer will use it, what the product is made or and where the product is coming from to make a sustainable choice. Your future customers will associate you with being a green company and Mother Earth will thank you!
