RICHMOND, England - Sept. 3, 2019 - For a few years now, recycling plastic, plastic pollution and how to limit or even avoid plastic has been a hot topic for many. We all know by now the effect plastic use is having on our world and animals within it. So we are all driven to do our bit in reducing our use and carbon footprint.

So what can we do as a company?

We have always been keen to use recycled or recyclable products where we can. Some limitation are still applying within industries but we try to make the best of what we have available.

In 2019 we're getting asked from our customers ways they could promote their brand using pens but without the guilt of a plastic pen.

So what are the options?

We would firstly advise them to try metal. Printed metal pens have often been disregarded due to their cost. Yes, they are not as cost-effective as a low cost plastic pen but remember why you are choosing an alternative in the first place? Surely a little extra cost is not comparable to the recycling capabilities if a metal pen?

Not all metal pens are expensive. Top brands such as Parker, Balmain are all warrant of the hefty price tag but we have some really great low cost printed metal pens in our range.

Check out our Electra pens (https://www.pgpromotionalitems.co.uk/collections/low-cost...) for example. They are an entry-level metal pen but with the durability of a mid-range metal pen. They come in a range of colours and can be printed on the barrel for maximum brand exposure. These Electra pens can also be engraved.

Metal not your thing? How about trying one of our new Printed Bamboo Pens?

These modern looking pens will grab your clients attention and instantly will be recognisable as a mostly recyclable pen. The bodies are made from hand-turned wood such as bamboo giving a smooth finish.
