You spend a lot of time in your office, whether you are an architect, lawyer, working artist or on the professional athlete. One thing you can do to create the healthiest environment is to stop using office products that are toxic.

Vinyl binders, plastics, carpets and a lot of office furniture out gasses some pretty toxic stuff including formaldehyde and PVCs. LEED certified buildings have failed their safe air tests for volitile organic compounds because of the office supplies brought into a well designed safe building.

If you are going to spend time in this environment, maybe it is time to look at what you can do to make it safer, work better, more  enjoyable and even look better.

recycled eco 3-ring binders - Naked Binder

Eliminating vinyl binders is a first and easy step.  What you are getting rid of is toxic to make, toxic to use and nearly impossible to get recycle. (go here for more information on PVCs  and here for problems in recycling a vinyl binder). Even worse, they fall apart due to the three piece construction.  So now you have a toxic and useless thing in your office.

Naked Binder offers a full line of eco friendly 3-ring binders.  Easily customized with labels ( for information on labels and other custom 3-ring binder options go here), with 9 colors, 5 styles, 4 ring sizes and 2 spines shapes you can find exactly what you need when you need it. Our binders are FSC certified and made with 100% post consumer waste binders board. They have been strength tested to insane degrees and will not break.

Our sustainable office supplies don't stop there.  100% recyclable pocket folders, eco friendly tab sets and sustainable cd packaging can help round out everything you need.
