The second-largest paper-wasting holiday is on the horizon: Valentine's Day. If your company wants to spread the love this holiday minus the waste, one company has the solution. ReProduct offers reusable greeting cards made out of a plastic material. Here's how it works: Once your card is received, the recipient inserts it back into the return-addressed, postage-paid envelope made of the same material, and it's sent to Shaw Industries, where 100 percent of the card is "ReProducted" into new carpet tiles. The greeting card line also includes invitations, announcement and other stationery items.
The product is already being used by Brad Pitt's Make it Right organization, and Mattel will be producing its annual reports for 2008 using ReProduct technologies. Mattel also recently announced that ReProduct reusable greeting cards are now carried by the Mattel corporate store.
Go to ReProduct's website to order custom or pre-printed cards.
