                Taking a Look at Environmentally Friendly Binding Supplies

                October 2, 2010 by Jeff McRitchie Leave a Comment

                With so many environmental problems affecting our planet today, there’s never been a better time to start using environmentally friendly binding supplies. These supplies are just as good – if not better – than your typical products so you can count on them to make your documents look great while also reducing your carbon footprint. Let’s take a look at some of the products available including Eco-Coil and PaperLock Eco-Comb binding elements, two products that make it easy to bind your documents. Here we go….

                1)      Eco-Coil Spiral Binding Coils. Color color binding remains one of the most popular bookbinding methods around and now thanks to these products, it’s environmentally friendly as well. These coils are completely made from post-consumer waste and they can be recycled when you’re done using them. Eco-Coil spines are just as durable and high-quality as other color coils so you’ll be able to create documents that are securely bound. These spines are available in a variety of thicknesses and the 2-inch ones being able to bind a document containing as many as 440 pages. A number of pitches are available including 3:1, 4:1, and 5:1 so there are bound to be coils that are right for your particular machine.

                2)      PaperLock Eco-Comb Binding Strips. A lot of people love the look and flexibility of plastic binding combs. In fact, plastic combs are without a doubt some of the best document finishing supplies available. However, plastic combs really aren’t very eco-friendly, which is why PaperLock Eco-Comb strips were developed. These are paper strips are similar to plastic combs except they’re 100% recyclable and can give your document the look of a perfect-bound book. Eco-Comb supplies can bind books that have as many as 200 pages and they’re available in four different colors: blue, black, red, and white. They’re a terrific alternative to plastic combs and you will feel good using them.

                3)      Regency Leatherette Covers. Every bound document needs a cover, so why not choose one that’s good for the environment? Regency leatherette covers feel like leather, but they’re actually made out of 100% recycled and post-consumer material. These covers are heavy and can be customized in a number of ways including foil-stamping, offset printing, and so on. They’re available in a number of different colors including black, white, maroon, blue, and more. Best of all, Regency leatherette covers can be purchased for a number of different binding methods including plastic comb, VeloBind, Unibind, etc. These are definitely some of the most versatile covers around.

                As you can see, there are a number of great supplies available that are environmentally friendly. Saving the planet is more than important than ever before and with these products, you’ll be doing your part while still creating professional-looking documents. Each one of these products is high-quality, durable, and will help give your documents the polished look they deserve. Be sure to stock up on these supplies today so you can do your company’s image – and the earth – a world of good.

                MyBinding.com Offers New Eco-Coil Recycled Coil Binding Spines

                September 18, 2009 by Jeff McRitchie

                eco-coil-spines-bm-content-1MyBinding.com, one of the nation’s leading suppliers of binding machines and supplies, announced that they’re now carrying a new line of Eco-Coil binding spines. Eco-Coil plastic binding spines are a brand new product and are the first environmentally friendly binding spines available to consumers. Made from 100% post-consumer waste, Eco-Coil binding spines are made from scrap pieces of coil that are collected from in-plan print shops. This means that they are not only recycled but they are also completely recyclable. This makes Eco-Coil an ideal choice for companies and organizations that are concerned about the environment and want to reduce the amount of waste they produce.

                 

                “These spines are truly an innovation. In the past, the use of plastic binding coils was seen as  detrimental to the environment because they couldn’t be recycled,” said Jeff McRitchie, Director of Marketing for MyBinding.com. “This changes that. Now people can use plastic binding spines and not have to worry about their impact on the planet.”

                In additional to being recyclable, Eco-Coil spines are durable, offer a professional look, and are available in a variety of different sizes, pitches, and lengths. (However, black is the only color available at this time. More colors may be available in the future.) The spines can be used with any spiral coil binding machineon the market and their durability makes them an ideal choice when binding documents that will likely be handled frequently or sent through the mail. Also, Eco-Coil spines can bind documents up to two inches thick and documents bound with the spines lay open flat for easy reading. Eco-Coil spines are 100% American-made and they’re available in boxes of 100, which can be ordered online at the MyBinding.com website (www.mybinding.com). Currently, MyBinding is the only company to offer these new binding coils.

                MyBinding.com, a division of Information Management Services, LLC, offers the largest selection of binding equipment and laminators and supplies on the Internet. The company is based in Hillsboro, Oregon and is looking to offer more eco-friendly products in the near future. According to Jeff McRitchie, “This is just the beginning for us. You can expect to see us add new environmentally friendly products to our website very soon,”. He also said that, “We want people to realize that binding doesn’t need to be harmful to the environment. We’re very pleased to offer such a great new product that looks good, is durable and, best of all, is environmentally friendly.”
