Top 5 Eco-Friendly Promotional Bags
While single-use plastic bags were a rare novelty in 1970, more than one trillion are produced annually today. After they'd been found from Mount Everest to the polar ice caps and everywhere in between, it's no surprise that environmental groups and concerned citizens began looking for alternatives.
Since California first banned single-use plastic bags in 2014, many other states and countries around the world followed suit. This opened up a market for reusable tote bags, which are perfect for advertisers because promotional bags are kept an average of 11 months and generate 3,300 impressions throughout their lifetime. Additionally, consumers are 50% more likely to do business with the advertiser that gave them the promotional bag.
Using bags that are made with environmental stewardship in mind is a no-brainer. When you think of eco-friendly promotional bags, you probably visualize the natural cotton shopping bags. While these are great for many applications, sometimes you need more sophisticated eco-friendly promotional bags that are made from sustainable materials. Check out these options; you—and your customers—will love them.
