As most of you know, I am all about green com­pa­nies and eco-friendly prod­ucts, and Naked Binder is cer­tainly no excep­tion. Naked Binder is a com­pany com­mit­ted to cre­at­ing durable, very high qual­ity and use­ful prod­ucts that leave less of a foot­print on the earth.  They believe that long life, strength and beauty go hand-in-hand in the fight against an ugly, cheap, dis­pos­able soci­ety.  Naked Binder is con­stantly work­ing to improve their prod­ucts and processes, look­ing for ways to cut down on waste and pack­ag­ing.  All of Naked Binder prod­ucts are either recy­cled or recy­clable which is phenomenal!

 

I recently received an assort­ment of Naked Binders to review. I noticed right off the bat that these binders were much stur­dier than the vinyl binders that we nor­mally pur­chase for school use. They also sport a very pretty array of colours on the spines so you can colour coor­di­nate your projects or pick a spe­cific colour to blend into your decor!

 

 

• 100% recy­cled board, 97% post-consumer waste
• com­pletely recy­clable
• acid neu­tral board
• no plas­tic, vinyl or toxic chemicals

 

Using eco-friendly prod­ucts help con­serve nat­ural resources, such as; wood, elec­tric­ity, water and oil. Biodegrad­able and recy­clable prod­ucts will also cut back on waste that goes to land­fills and helps pre­vent pol­lu­tion from leach­ing into the ecosys­tem. Recy­cling helps pre­serve the envi­ron­ment and sup­ports the economy.

To make the biggest impact with eco-friendly prod­ucts you should both buy eco-friendly/recycled prod­ucts and reduce, reuse and recy­cle the prod­ucts you buy.

 

 

 

 

 

Using prod­ucts made from recy­cled mate­ri­als such as what these binders are made of, reduces the impact on the envi­ron­ment in a few ways. In the exam­ple of paper, less trees are being cut down. The num­ber of chem­i­cals used in the pro­duc­tion of new paper is reduced. Land-fill sites have been spared at least the amount of paper that was recy­cled! What a bril­liant way to par­take in liv­ing an eco-friendly lifestyle! Naked Binder is an Eco-friendly option for school sup­plies that kids or par­ents already buy but with­out all the vinyl and PVC. They are 100% recy­clable, 100% recy­cled, 100% PCW and FCS cer­ti­fied. Along with being green­their binders are also strong enough, for even the rough­est kids, to make it through the year with one binder. They were tested by flex­ing them over 250,000 times with­out fail, that is equiv­a­lent to using the binder 20 times a day for over 30+ years with­out it break­ing. They also go one step fur­therby being a mem­ber of the 1% for the Planet pro­gram. Being a mem­ber means 1% of their sales go to envi­ron­men­tal orga­ni­za­tions around the world.

 

About Naked Binder:

 

“Started in 2008, Naked Binder emerged hav­ing mul­ti­ple goals: sus­tain­abil­ity, great design, pre­serv­ing wilder­ness we love and giv­ing back to edu­ca­tion that helped us get here.

We designed the strongest, most sus­tain­able 3-ring binders avail­able — cut­ting waste in man­u­fac­tur­ing, pro­cess­ing and travel.  We make our binders, fold­ers and tabs in Des Moines, IA in the US of A out of FSC cer­ti­fied, 100% post-consumer waste binders board, 100% cot­ton cloth, a few FSC cer­ti­fied papers and metal rings.  No plas­tics, vinyls or toxins.

We designed our 3-ring binders to look so good you won’t want to get rid of them.  We have every­thing you might need to impress a client, store your taxes or dec­o­rate your office.

Naked Binder donates to sup­port wilder­ness areas and schools around the US. Learn­ing to think and space to think in are impor­tant for a bet­ter world.

I give Naked Binder a huge thumbs up, and rec­om­mend that you try these out for your­self! They are per­fect for all of your back to school needs that is very quickly approaching!
