Earlier this week, we discussed some tips on how to green your store. One tip was to switch to eco friendly bags. For this week’s Friday Featured Tip, we are going to take a closer look at eco friendly bags and how they can help your store.
Retailers go through a lot of bags. Plus, they go through different sizes of bags. Many times, these bags end up in the trash. Occasionally they are recycled. Groceries stores have historically tried to reduce this waste by offering bag drops at the store’s entrance for easy recycling. But this is not feasible for many independent retail stores.
Our suggestion is to try and use a more eco friendly product to begin with to ensure that your store is reducing the amount of trash that it produces. Store Supply Warehouse offers a variety of eco friendly bags.
One variety is the eco friendly frosted plastic shopping bag. These durable bags are made with 25% post consumer and post industrial products. And they are 100% recyclable. The bags are ideal for packing a shopper’s purchase or adding colorful tissue for simple, yet elegant gift bags. Each frosty bag is made of high density plastic for durability and features loop handles. Not only are they great for gifts, but because they are so durable, they can be reused more often than typical bags.
The other main variety is eco friendly kraft paper bags. These bags are made from 100% post consumer material. These bags are also extremely versatile and can be re purposed as gift bags. They are tear resistant and can be used multiple times.
So give the earth a second chance and go green with any of these environmentally-friendly bags.
