Recycled Office and School Supplies - Why they are important
May 17, 2010 Written By: Ken The importance of recycled office and school supplies can not be overstated. Forests are being cut down for to do lists and jottings from meetings. Consider for a moment a tree. A tree gives home to birds and animals, while cleaning the air and water, creating oxygen, holding the earth in place (preventing erosion), providing shade, micro climates, nutients for the soil, awesome views and great places to sit. Is this really what you want to jot your to do list on? Using recycled notebook and copier paper is easy. You can find it almost everywhere. To really try to close the loop to new trees out of your paper, look for the highest percentage of post consumer waste possible. At 100% post consumer waste, no new trees were cut down to print that memo, sustainability directive or paper about saving the environment. While you are looking for those sustainble office supplies, consider that somewhere around 60 million vinyl 3-ring binders are bought, used and thrown away each year in the US alone. Covered in vinyl, these binders are toxic and un-recyclable. That is around 50 million pounds of waste in our landfills, plus the paperboard sandwiched in that vinyl never gets recycled. What would you do if you could find a 100% recyclable, non toxic 3-ring binder that used only FSC certified 100% post consumer waste board and a ring? What if it was also tested to be the strongest 3-ring binder is the world? You see where this is leading. Naked Binder has crafted a line of recycled office and school supplies (recycled 3-ring binders - also known as loose leaf binders, 100% recycled and recyclable pocket folders and tab dividers.). Designed to last longer, work better, look better and not harm the planet.
Do the planet and a tree a favor. Look into using recycled papers and sustainable binders for your office or school. It can make a big difference.  Recycled office supplies recycled school supplies strongest 3-ring binder recycled 3-ring binder recycled loose leaf binder recycled pocket folder

"Over all people were surprised about the binders. They couldn’t believe how long they lasted or how sturdy they were. I even told them you put then in the washer to test them. Most of all they loved the product name. But my favorite was a woman who’s son wants to be an artist, she wanted to get him the binders go he could draw all over them and make them his traveling art. When we gave her a sample I thought she would cry she was so happy. It made my day."
