Did you know that disposable plastic bags only came to market in 1965 and were promoted as the 'environmental-friendly' alternative to paper bags. Little did people know that they would become one of the largest environmental issues, polluting oceans and adding to landfills. Choosing a reusable, eco-friendly bag for your next promotion, is a great way, although only a small step, towards building awareness and promoting a more sustainable lifestyle. Building incentives for your customers to truly reuse the bag will be key. Step it up and choose an organic cotton bag, or go with a style that uses recycled fabric as a material. All of the bags at ConventionTotes.com are reusable, recyclable, biodegradable and sustainable, however, some of the bags are more eco-friendly than others. Let our customer service team educate you about your best options.
