Corporate Resposibility - recycled 3-ring binder news
March 8, 2010

corporate responsibility - recycled 3-ring binder

Corporate Responsibility.  To many this seems like something that vanished - or maybe never existed. There are a few companies that stand out.

One of our favorites is Patagonia.  Started in a shed making climbing gear, Patagonia evolved into a large company keeping the dreams of the founder, Yvon Chouinard firmly in the corporate fabric.  They support many environmental causes and started 1% for the Planet, a way of encouraging other companies to do the same. They are up front with the footprint of their clothes in traveling and construction.

Corporate responsibility extends to the social, ethical and environmental views and actions of the company.

At Naked Binder we are trying to do our part. 

Our 3-ring binders and folders are made paying fair wages and we offer health care.  They are made in Des Moines, IA where our parent company, Library Binding Service has been since the 1930s.

We support the local schools (and some less local), donating 3-ring binders for kids who need them.  We had so many requests last year, we donated pallets of binders out at a time.

Naked Binder was formed with the intention of making the best, most sustainable 3-ring binder on the planet.  We constantly strive to find ways to cut waste and the footprint of our binders. We've switched to an FSC certified 100% post consumer waste board, simplified our process.  We are constantly striving to do better.

Our passions are in the outdoors.  Climbing, hiking, paddling, running, walking and restoring.  Naked Binder has tasked itself to work toward leaving no trace.  We are cutting down our footprint and offering others a way to cut theirs. While not entirely without trace, compared to vinyl binders, our recycled and recyclable 3-ring binders are a walk in the park.
