Eco Articles – Bamboo: Nature’s Miracle Grass
There’s recorded history of bamboo being used as long as 7,000 years ago. It is one of the fasted growing plants in the world. In fact, it can grow up to 60 cm/24 inches in one day. Bamboo is a fascinating material due to its incredible strength and regenerative properties. A pole of bamboo can regenerate to its full mass in just six months. It can be continuously re-harvested every three to seven years. All that without causing damage to the plant system. The re-harvesting actually improves the overall health of the plant. Its surrounding environment is not harmed because its root system stays intact. As a result, erosion is prevented. Bamboo has very quickly emerged as an extremely viable alternative to all sorts of non-renewable products.
Beyond the appeal, charm, and natural beauty, bamboo is strong, clean, and incredibly useful. At present, Custom Green Promos offers over 30 products that have bamboo incorporated into their product design. From small to large, simple to complex, inexpensive to premium, Custom Green Promos has a bamboo product to suit every budget and application. Whether entertaining, working hard at the office or home, or enjoying a well-deserved treat, bamboo can offer anyone a smart product solution. Renewable, anti-bacterial, resilient, reliable, and moisture-resistant are just a few of the many properties of this naturally wonderful material.

Eco Articles – The Green Side of Golf
Traditionally, in order to comply with many regulations governing land use, golf courses have had to be ecologically responsible from their conception. Beyond that responsibility, most are now venturing forward with an even greater green purpose. Examples can be seen in all aspects of the operation of a course. To the casual observer, several indications of a green focus are obvious. Some examples may require further digging. As a matter of fact, digging at a few courses may uncover a few surprises! At this time, there are several courses (either in development or in the planning stages) that have a reclaimed landfill site as their base. This latest
concept further emphasizes the importance of waste reduction, recycling, and proper disposal of hazardous materials. The ultimate use of reclaimed landfill that provides for personal recreation and a natural wildlife habitat is essentially a complete eco circle.
Beyond the hidden base of some golf courses, there are plenty of obvious signs of a green movement on local fairways. Many courses have moved away from gas-powered (high emission) carts to using more efficient rechargeable battery vehicles. A growing number of courses are now providing score cards, supported by local businesses, printed on recycled paper.
Eco Articles – The Green Side of Golf Continued…….
Promotional marketing is also playing a role in the greening of golf courses. Many locations now offer biodegradable tees and recycled paper pens. In addition to that, they offer many styles of clothing that have recycled and/or natural fabric content. At tournaments, reusable non woven lunch bags are currently a favourite form of packaging for presenting golfers with their gifts (balls, a towel, snack bar, etc.) for the day. As well as being kept and reused, for corporate partners, non woven lunch bags provide a wonderful opportunity for event sponsorship.
Some courses have even gone so far as refusing to sell individual bottles of water. At those courses, as part of a paid greens fee, patrons receive a personal water bottle. They can refill it at any of the several watering stations located around the course. Upon completion of their round, golfers simply take their reusable bottle home. Much like recent initiatives at local coffee shops, if the golfers return at a later date with their bottle (which is easily stored in, or clipped onto their golf bag) then they do not need to buy a new bottle and are offered a reduced green fee. In every sense, these are all welcome initiatives. The greens are indeed getting greener! Select from our complete line of reusable grocery bags bulk and custom reusable tote bags.
Eco Articles – The Non Woven Recycling Process
Remnants of non run through a machine where they are melted down into a liquid form. Plastic (Polypropylene) pellets are then mixed with the liquid. All color is extracted and dye in a coloured pellet form is then added to the mixture. The liquid is then poured onto a flat surface. It is heated to a very high temperature and becomes a large sheet of plastic or flexible resin polymer (not a “woven” fabric). The flexible resin polymer is actually debossed to give the appearance of woven cloth. Lastly, the ready-to-use non woven material is compressed with large rollers and cooled.
The end result is non woven material made of reclaimed production waste with 25% recycled content. Our non woven polypropylene comes in various gram weights. In fact, this is including 75, 90, 100, 110 and 120 gsm (grams per square metre). In fact, the higher the gsm, the more durable the fabric. We have full control of the manufacturing and recycling processes. We oversee this process as we produce, sew and recycle our non woven material in our manufacturing plant overseas. Therefore our quality control is great. Material scraps are never wasted or discarded. Instead, they are used over and over again. Closing the loop on what we use and dispose ultimately reduces the carbon footprint by easing the strain on landfills. This is important to us because it’s good for the environment.
