We
think coming
up with creative ways to minimize waste is a
whole lot of fun. No, really! Try it! It's totally
satisfying and quite addicting. Recycling is
important, but let's make the most of what we
have even before we put it in our recycling
bins. We can multiply our resource savings
if we reduce and reuse before recycling.
Benny Points starts with our product packaging.
Post-consumer corrogated boxes find a new purpose
after being cut into tidy rectangles to protect
your stationery purchase. That jaunty belly-band
securing the set is cut from the first part of
our print run, called "make-ready", paper normally
considered at the end of it's useful life. And
by using water-based dry-gum labels to secure
the band, the whole kit-and-kaboodle can be recycled,
unlike most litho-wrapped stationery boxes. Consider
using pre-cycled materials in your everyday life.
If you'd like to make
a point let us
share our favorite ideas to help you do just
that! Then check out our preferred
vendor page for resources
that make it easy to be green.
