At EcoBranders, we support several different eco-friendly initiatives, not only to minimize our own environmental footprint but also because it’s important to our customers, who genuinely appreciate businesses committed to sustainability and social responsibility. We’ve learned that being open about our efforts and involving others in our sustainability journey, attracts environmentally conscious consumers, which we absolutely love!
What makes us different from other promo merch companies?
Sustainable Product Selection with Certifications and Labels: We have strict product selection criteria and will only bring on new products that meet our standards. Our products are made from sustainable materials, such as recycled plastics, organic cotton, or bamboo. They cannot contain virgin wood material, including paper, or come from non-renewable natural resources. Cotton products must be certified organic, and products made primarily from plastic must contain 50%+ certified recycled material. In addition, we prioritize sourcing from suppliers with a proven commitment to sustainability. This criteria reduces the demand for new resources and promotes recycling efforts while providing credibility to EcoBranders' eco-friendly claims, instilling confidence in customers.
Carbon Reduction: We’re committed to doing our part to reduce planet-warming gases like CO2.. We partner with organizations with initiatives that include reforestation projects, renewable energy investments, CO2 reduction, and ocean conservation, and we proudly offset 100% of carbon emissions associated with shipped orders.
Eco-Friendly Packaging: By minimizing packaging waste and using eco-friendly packaging materials, such as biodegradable, recycled, or compostable options, we demonstrate a commitment to reducing our environmental impact. As our clients care about the environment as much as we do, we communicate options to ship orders in the most environmentally friendly way. As an example, we worked with one of our clients to prevent the use of 14,000 plastic baggies that otherwise would have been used to package an order of 14,000 water bottles.
Transparency: We prioritize sharing information about our eco-friendly initiatives and environmental impact as it builds trust with our customers. We link our partner programs on our website while keeping our customers informed about our earth-positive metrics. Additionally, our carefully selected suppliers offer documentation and certification for our products, fostering valuable transparency within our supply chain.
Community Engagement and Education: Engagement is a priority we fulfill by utilizing social media. We emphasize education on our platforms as educating customers about the importance of sustainability can create a sense of shared values while demonstrating a commitment to broader environmental stewardship beyond business operations.
EcoBranders was established with a mission to champion environmentalism and encourage sustainable, conscious living. We prioritize the environment and the well-being of our customers in all our endeavors.
