If you re like most business owners, you re worried about the environment. And if you re concerned about our planet, you probably worry about whether the office supplies you use are helping or hurting the earth. This is probably especially true if your office regularly binds documents. Bound documents look great, but they ve traditionally not been very environmentally friendly. This is because in the past, many binding materials, such as plastic binding combs, cover sheets, and the like, couldn t be recycled. Thus, when there was no more use for your bound document, it would wind up in a landfill where the plastic would sit for years and never biodegrade.
That s all about to change, however, and now you ll be able to both bind your documents and be good to the environment. How? By using the brand new Eco Coil recycled binding spines. These spines are truly a binding industry breakthrough. They are the first spiral binding coils made from 100 post consumer materials (read: they re made from old binding spines!) and, best of all, they are completely recyclable. So they re perfect for when you need to bind that important report or presentation but still want to reduce your carbon footprint.
Even if you re not concerned about the earth, Eco Coil spines are a good choice for your next binding project. They can be used with any spiral coil binding machine, so you won t need to buy any additional equipment to use them. (And in these difficult economic times, saving money is always a bonus.) Eco Coil spines are extremely durable, which means your document will hold up to frequent handling. Documents bound with Eco Coil spines lay flat, so your documents can be easily read or photocopied, which makes these spines ideal for binding items such as calendars, cookbooks, and reference materials.
You don t worry about the thickness of your document Eco Coil spines are available in thicknesses ranging from ¼ of an inch up to two inches, so you ll be able to use these spines no matter the length of your document. And hopefully you like black because currently, Eco Coil spines are available only in that hue due to their being made from post consumer waste. (More colors may be available in the future, however.) Eco Coil spines are available in two lengths: 12 inch and 36 inch. With the 36 spines, you can easily trim them down, making them ideal for custom sized projects. Finally, these spines are manufactured in the United States of America, so when you buy them, you re supporting American businesses and stimulating the economy. How patriotic, huh?
There are many benefits to using Eco Coil spines, including convenience (no additional equipment required!), versatility, and the great look they can lend to your documents. But let s not forget their most important feature: their eco friendliness. It s about time that binding became a more environmentally friendly endeavor and now it can be, thanks to Eco Coil spines. Purchase a box of Eco Coil spines today so you can bind your presentations and reports while also giving the earth a helping hand.
