Go Plastic Free in July
Good Choices Make Great Changes

Join millions of people reducing their plastic waste this month, whether for your home, your next event – or both! The month of July is the time to go Plastic Free where we all can do our part to be a little kinder to the planet. Simple changes can positively benefit the environment, as the choices we make add up quickly to help make our world a little greener – one zero waste product at a time.
Check out some of our top picks and reach out to our sustainability experts for more event options. Happy swapping!
Bambo Bonus – Utensils, Serving Bowls, Cups and More
Replace plastic utensils, plates, serving dishes and more with bamboo-based materials. Bamboo is not only durable but very eco-friendly. Utilize the bamboo serving bowls, cone, plates and more and you are well on your way to a greener event.
Compostable Straws
Straws so green, you can compost them. These eco-friendly options come in a variety of sizes, colors, either wrapped or unwrapped to match your renewable beverage needs.
Plantable Name Badges
An eco-twist on a classic style event name badge, the plantable seed paper is made by hand from 100%-recyclable material embedded with a mixture of seeds that guests can grow long after the event ends. These badges will complement your green, eco-friendly message at your next event – simply plant, water and enjoy!
Bamboo Lanyards
Pair up your plantable name badge with a bamboo lanyard – one of the earth’s most sustainable resources. The cellulose fiber easily breaks down in the soil, preventing environmental pollution. Made from 100% bamboo, the lanyards are strong, durable and naturally anti-bacterial. Win-win-win!
Refillable Water Stations
Ditch the plastic bottles and provide guests with their own, branded refillable eco-friendly bottle as an attendee gift that keeps giving. Strategically placed water stations encourage refilling as guest hydrate throughout the day.
As the ever-growing concern about the environment has accelerated demand for conscious, sustainable initiatives, eco-friendly program development is a must for clients wanting to reduce their carbon footprint. These simple changes can make a large impact over time.
