Eco-Friendly Tags Made With Recycled Paper
At St. Louis Tag, we go the extra mile to make our products more sustainable. We offer customized environmentally safe and recyclable hang tags using 100% recycled paper with 30% post-consumer waste, soy-based ink, cotton/jute string and 100% vegetable adhesive.
As mentioned, our eco-friendly hang tags are printed with vegetable-based ink, particularly soy. Soy, a biodegradable and renewable resource, is an environmentally friendly ink base made from soybeans. When compared to traditional oil- and petroleum-based inks, which contain ozone-damaging concentrates and emit volatile organic compounds (VOC), soy is an excellent alternative. Not only are soy-based inks great for the environment and your eco-friendly business plan, but they deliver brighter and more vibrant colors that oil- and petroleum-based inks often cannot produce. Not to mention, they are considerably more cost effective than oil-based inks.
In addition, eco-friendly hang tags present a great opportunity to promote your company’s green agenda. Often, purchasing decisions are established based on more than just price and quality. Today, we are seeing that more and more consumers prefer to purchase items from companies that demonstrate they care about the environment. So, use your hang tags to spread the word about your company's eco-friendly business efforts.
St. Louis Tag can print hang tags for your business that are not only economically friendly, but are high quality, visually appealing and affordable. Browse through some of our examples featured above or Contact Us today for more information or a free quote.
