Saving Money with a Recycled Naked Binder
October 30, 2009 Written By: Naked Binder Admin Buying office supplies demands cunning and prescience to get the best deals, the best products at the best cost. In a 3-ring binder, you want a product that will last, hold paper and can be labeled. Depending on your need, it's green qualities will matter (LEED certifeid buildings will benefit fro these as will governement offices who are mandated to cut back on waste). Actual Value. strength. Naked Binder offers the strongest binder on the market. Most binders fail at the spine hinge because they are made of three pieces of board with a thin piece of vinyl holding it together. Naked Binders last because they are made of one piece of 110pt board with the hinge pressed directly into the board. There are no weak spots. Tested to 50,000 flexes (over 9 years of 20 uses a day) with NO change, these hinges will not fail. Better rings. On our 2" and 2.5" binders we use the best ring available so the weight of 450 sheets of paper doesnt open your binder and spill out on the floor. Actual costs. A $4-$12 vinyl binder will last about a year if you don't use it much. If your $7-$10 Naked Binder only lasts 5 years you will save at least $13 per binder.If your company uses 100 binders a year that adds up Another cost is disposal. For larger firms having large amounts of vinyl binders to dispose of is an issue. A toxic and expensive issue. One company has 30,000 in a warehouse and no way to dispose of them. Environmentally friendly. Most companies and a whole lot of individuals are concerned about the environment. While buying one recycled binder will not change very much, consider that 60-80 million vinyl binders are bought and thrown away each year in the United States. Most of these end up in landfill. This costs you and your company in taxes as the county, state and federal government scramble to find room for more landfill. Percieved Value. Environmentally Friendly. These binders look great, work well and make a great impression. Naked Binders have been used for meetings of Sustainable Business Councils, in house use and props for high end furniture companies, architectural proposals, and art portfolios. The benefit of your attention to details in a proposal, in your LEED certification, or even in in-house use can push your image higher as high as your actual concern for the environment.
