Calico Bags – Promoting Your Business In An Environmental and Eco-Friendly Way

Promotional bags with your brand image or company logo offer a great way to market and promote your products or corporate identity. They’re great for handing out giveaways at trade shows, conventions, conferences and events. Hand them out individually, or fill with t-shirts, caps, bumper stickers, key chains, pens, mugs and more for a stronger impression.

The Australasian Promotional Products Association (APPA) recently conducted some research to identify the worth of the Australian and New Zealand promotional merchandise industry. According to their findings, this industry has an AUD$1340m turnover in Australia. The effectiveness of promotional products was studied, and it demonstrated that 52% of recipients had a positive impression of the company after they received a promotional product.

Befriend the eco-friendly bags!

Plastic bags branded with company logos have been widely used for promotional purposes from a long time. However in recent times with lots of environmental awareness, its popularity is rapidly decreasing. Customers now know how it litters our land and clogs our water bodies. These disposable bags are quickly discarded after a single use and add to the large amounts of waste that we humans produce regularly.

That’s why more and more people opt for eco-friendly options instead of plastic. One such alternative to plastic bags is calico bags. These bags are washable and reusable, so they don’t get tossed in the trash like plastic after a single use. They also don’t negatively affect the environment. Calico bags are stylish, versatile and perfect for grocery shopping, holding books, and carrying daily essentials.
