"LOVE the binder! You have no idea how long I looked, both online and in stores, for a binder of this quality and size! I am SO happy that this worked out as it did! "

Trash - addressing the problem through art
April 7, 2009
Written By: Lefty

Trash.  We are surrounded by it, create heaps of it and don't seem to know what to do about it.  We recycle a small portion of the waste we produce, but most goes to landfills which are rapidly filling.

So what can we do about it?  One way is use products with recycled content and recyclable materials - yes, Naked Binder is one of those (100% recycled content!!).  While this can tame our contribution to the big piles getting others to listen is also a priority.

That Brings us to HA Schult.  This artist created 1000 life sized "Trash People'.  This army of trash is an kind of Archeological dig into our current situation.  Originally shown in the ampitheatre of Xanten, they were subsequently sent around the world to bring home a point as well as inspire and amaze.

Naked Binder Story

The Naked Binder was born over a glass of wine at a family holiday dinner. First, some background. Our family businesses started in 1868 and are involved today with book binding, archival products, presentation materials and binders. One of our companies, Corporate Image, was the first American company to offer a viable alternative to toxic vinyl binders. Our famous FlexHinge binders have a core of sturdy board made from 100% recycled fiber of which 97% is post-consumer waste. These binders are covered with printed and laminated paper .or with fabric. Who could improve on that?
