Using eco-friendly promotional materials like water flasks, bamboo pens and notebooks allows businesses to showcase their commitment to sustainability. Among these items, reusable bags stand out as one of the most customisable and sustainable marketing materials available today.
At Claytons, we offer high-quality bags made from recycled fabrics and organic materials, perfect for businesses seeking eco-friendly merchandise. In this guide, we’ll highlight the importance of reusable bags and showcase our eco-friendly options.
Australia produces 3.4 million tonnes of plastic waste each year. Approximately 30% of this consists of single-use plastics or disposable items like plastic bags, straws and cutlery. Though their use is short-lived, their impact is long-lasting, as these plastics can take decades, if not centuries, to decompose.
One effective solution to this growing issue is the use of reusable bags. Even with just 10 uses, a reusable bag can reduce CO2 emissions by 56% to 67% compared to using 10 single-use plastic bags.
Choosing reusable bags as eco-friendly promotional items not only boosts your brand’s visibility but also actively reduces plastic waste, contributing to a greener and more responsible future.
Jute is a vegetable fibre known for its durability and strength. It’s commonly used to create sturdy, coarse fabrics that are woven into bags, rugs, carpets, chair coverings, ropes, curtains and hessian cloth. Jute is a 100% biodegradable and recyclable material that’s gentle on the skin and free from irritants.
All of our woven jute bags feature a resilient inner lining and padded cotton handles for added comfort. They can be customised with your logo or brand name either through screen printing or laser printing.
Calico bags are produced by weaving cotton yarns on a loom, resulting in a raw, unprocessed material known as ‘loomstate’. This gives calico its distinctive cream-coloured, natural appearance, which is suitable for printing.
Beyond bags, calico fabric is widely used in quilting, dressmaking and home decor. It’s lightweight and breathable, yet durable enough to handle regular use. Calico is also simple to maintain, as it can be conveniently machine washed and dried.
Our range of calico bags includes:
Our non-woven shopping bags offer an eco-friendly alternative to single-use plastic bags.
