Eco Fact:
Currently only 3.5% of all plastics generated are made of recycled materials compared to 34% for paper, 30% for metals and 22% for glass. At this time, plastics recycling only minimally reduces the amount of virgin resources used to make plastics. Fillers in typically all-plastic items reduce the total plastic needed to produce an item. *
Promo Fact:
Many promotional products traditionally made with plastic (rulers, pencils, pens) can also be made with filler products. Recycled fillers that can all be used to replace some of the plastic include denim, electronics, cardboard, sawdust, currency, yellow pages and newspaper. **
Filler Product Special:
Pens, pencils, pencil boxes, rulers, flower pots, buckets, and coffee mugs are just a few examples of products that can be made with filler materials. Please contact your WCP Promotional Consultant or contact the corporate office at 602.795.7300 or Julia@wrightchoicepromotions.com for more information on specific filler materials and products available.Place an order for a filler product before April 1st and receive 10% off!
