Eco Friendly Promotional Pens

Eco friendly promotional pens provide organisations with an opportunity to communicate more than just a simple printed message. The connotations that are associated with environmentally friendly personalised pens enable a company to also address awareness of their green agendas whilst communicating their corporate message to customers.

The range of Envirostick Extra Recycled Ball Pens available at the Pen Warehouse, have proven to be a popular choice for organisations looking to increase the awareness of their eco credentials. The eco credentials of this innovative new product are second to none, offering the world’s first recycled refill in a pen. Furthermore, the green status of these personalised pens is authenticated by the recycled material utilised in the trim and refill of the Envirostick. Ecoallene® is the result of a number of years of research and development by Tetra Pak and Lecce Pen.

The over reliance on food and drink packaging we have developed in modern day society has caused an overabundance of post-consumer cartons taking up valuable space in landfill sites and contributing heavily to greenhouse gas emissions. Owing to the nature of the process, Ecoallene® will help us to dramatically reduce the amount of food and drink carton waste we are currently sending to landfill or incinerators.

Tetra Pak cartons are made up of three layers; paper, aluminium and polyethylene. Under a complex process developed by Lecce Pen, the three payers are separated. The waste paper is then sent for recycling, whilst the aluminium and polyethylene layers are combined under a high pressure heat process, the result being small plastic like pellets. The Ecoallene pellets can then be used in the same way as traditional plastics to produce any product that we would normally associate to being made from plastic. For example a major high street retailer is using Ecoallene to produce a range of recycled jewellery, a European super market chain has produced shopping trolleys from Ecoallene®, the potentials for this incredible innovation really are endless.
