ECO STATEMENT

A letter from the Owner

 

We recognize that the promotional products industry has been a contributor to waste production in the past. In 2020, MARCO Ideas Unlimited consciously moved towards sustainability by educating each client on eco-friendly swag products and production processes. It has been our desire for many years to reduce our impact on the planet, and this is one of many sustainable business practices we will continue to undertake.

 

Since 2021, we have been happily donating a portion of our profits to One Tree Planted for every order processed. One Tree Planted plants trees all across the globe to combat deforestation. For instance, they are replanting some areas of recent fire destruction near our World Headquarters here in the Pacific Northwest.

 

MARCO Ideas Unlimited also offers eco-friendly swag products that support a range of environmental conservation groups, including 1% for the Planet. 1% for the Planet donates to non-profits throughout the world to offset environmental destruction, and also works towards social justice. Adding your logo to products that contribute to these efforts for our planet helps you put your marketing funds towards good works, and meet your corporate sustainability goals.

 

In addition, we are expanding our eco-friendly selections by recommending more sustainable swag options every day, including:

-Organic apparel and swag that carries vetted certifications like Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), EcoVadis and B Corps

-Ethically sourced hemp apparel and textile items

-Recycled fabric apparel and bags

-Water-based screen-printing inks, when appropriate

-Fair Trade Certified – our primary manufacturers are diligent when it comes to upholding the highest workplace standards

 

As always, we recommend the closest shipping location to your destination to avoid excess fuel usage and reduce your company’s supply chain carbon footprint. We look forward to being part of the solution when it comes to saving the globe.

Thank you for doing your part as well!
