RALPH’S PHAVORITE ECO-PHRIENDLY AND SUSTAINABLE PROMO PRODUCTS
Earth Day may just be another holiday on your calendar but truthfully we should be protecting our Earth and utilizing sustainable practices on the daily. Unsure where to start? No worries! Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty.
What constitutes a sustainable product?
According to the Sustainable Product Corporation, sustainable products:“provide environmental, social, and economic benefits while protecting public health, welfare, and environment over their full commercial cycle, from the extraction of raw materials to final disposal.”
A few examples would be :
Recycled Fabrics
Natural Materials
Reusable Products
Sustainably/Ethically made
Let’s dive into some data. This global study on sustainability performed in 2021 has amazing insight into what drives consumers to purchase sustainable options.
34% of all consumers are willing to pay more for sustainable products/services
50% of consumers rank sustainability as a top 5 value driver when making important purchases
96% of consumers think their personal actions (including purchasing behavior) can make a real difference in the world
“Millennials and Gen Z are becoming a force to be reckoned with as they continue to represent a larger share of the consumer demographic. Companies that don’t have sustainability as part of their core value proposition need to act now to protect against future reputational impacts and loss of market share,” said Shikha Jain, author of the study and Partner at Simon-Kucher & Partners.
Ready to get started? We’ve rounded up our phavorite promo items that are eco-friendly, sustainable, and ethically made.
RALPH’S ECO-PHRIENDLY PICKS
Employee Gift Ideas
Create branded and personalized duffel bags that are made from post-consumer plastics.
Gift these canvas/cork shopping totes. Once the cork is harvested from Cork Oak trees, the tree regenerates the cork and can be harvested again without being cut down. Use heat transfer or screenprinting to add your logo or design.
Event Giveaways
Eco-friendly lip balm housed in recycled post-consumer plastic and potato bio-resin is a no-brainer! Add your brand/business in a phun design to the container.
An on-the-go bamboo utensil set is perfect for those days when takeout sounds like a great idea but hate receiving those plastic sets of utensils. Customize the pouch with your brand/business which is made from recycled water bottles.
Corporate
Have an upcoming corporate event and need something professional, useful, and sustainable? Try these Reclaim Recycled Journals. Utilizing recycled leather, paper, and fabric, these are made from 85% recycled material!

Who doesn’t love purchasing a mug from their phavorite shop/business? Offer your customers branded wheat straw mugs! These mugs are made from leftover straw during wheat grain harvesting. The inner portion of the mug is stainless steel so you always have a piping hot cup of joe.
Ralph’s Phave!
Custom branded Bee’sWrap. This has been a staple in Ralph’s repertoire at home already but with the option to brand the package with your business or logo, we love it even more!
