Sustainability is something we are all thinking about more these days and it is definitely not just a passing trend. More and more businesses want branded gifts that feel good, look good and do good for the planet too. At Chilli Promotional Products we have seen a big rise in companies asking for eco friendly options made from recycled materials.
If you are planning gifts for clients, prepping for an event or freshening up your welcome packs here are the top recycled merchandise items that people absolutely love right now.
Recycled Tote Bags and Shoppers
These are always a winner. Recycled cotton totes and RPET shoppers are practical, stylish and great value. People use them again and again which means your branding gets seen again and again.
From everyday totes to foldable shoppers and even recycled drawstring bags there is lots of choice and they all give you a nice big print area.
Recycled Drinkware
Reusable drinkware is one of the most popular categories in general and when it is made from recycled materials it is even better. Bottles, tumblers and coffee cups are used daily which gives your brand brilliant staying power.
They suit staff gifts, client thank you presents and event giveaways. Plus they naturally encourage people to ditch disposables which is a lovely eco message for your brand to be connected to.
Eco Friendly Stationery
Sometimes it is the simplest things that land the best. Notebooks made from recycled paper, recycled pens, pencils and even eco friendly USB drives are still top sellers.
They work brilliantly for conferences, exhibitions and onboarding packs. They are cost effective and everyone needs stationery so nothing gets wasted.
Recycled Wearables
Clothing made from recycled fibres is becoming more and more popular. Think recycled cotton T shirts, caps and lightweight totes. People actually wear and use these pieces which gives your branding great visibility without being too shouty.
It is a lovely way to show that your business cares about quality and the environment all at the same time.
Premium Eco Gifts
Eco merchandise is not just basics anymore. There are some fantastic premium items made from recycled materials such as tech accessories, wireless speakers and recycled PU gift pieces.
These work perfectly for VIP gifting, staff appreciation or any time you want something a little more special while still keeping sustainability front and centre.
