With the holiday season coming up, everyone will be giving and receiving presents. And while some would say that there's no better feeling than unwrapping a gift, that leftover paper and additional packaging does pile up, creating plenty of extra and uneeded garbage. There are companies who now sell recycled wrapping paper and that's a great option, but why not give a gift within a gift?
Choosing custom eco-friendly bags to place your gifts in is a simple, and effective way of giving a gift within a gift. Sure bags are most often used at trade shows, and big company meetings but they can also be given out to make a statement during the holiday season. Just take a look at this case study of how promotional eco-friendly cotton totes worked for an ad agency looking to reduce their carbon footprint.
Over in the Phillipines, TWBA Advertising chose to do just that. Their parent agency, TWBA Worldwide had created a movement called the Carbon Nuetral Challenge, in which they asked their agencies all over the world to think of a way to reduce their carbon footprint. Taking into account their extensive design skills and the power of recycled promotional products, they created these custom eco-friendly cotton tote bags to carry the holiday gifts that they would be giving to clients and staff members. Take a look at some of the fun designs:
These three bags are just a sampling of some of the fun custom designs that TWBA came up with while seeking to reduce their carbon footprint. Make the smart decision this holidat season and choose promotional eco-friendly cotton totes instead of wrapping paper. Not only will you be reducing your carbon footprint, but your logo will stick around much longer than it would on a gift tag.
