Eco-Business Practices
Global Baskets LLC seeks environmentally safe and sustainable products such as organic cotton, renewable bamboo, recycled, compostable, BPA free or energy efficient products. We follow the mantra of reduce, reuse and recycle.
If a choice is available between domestic or international product; our first consideration is the impact on the environment, next the social impact and finally the cost of the products. Being manufactured over seas doesn’t automatically convey child labor and unfair wages. Many of our products are purchased from companies that have established strong eco guidelines such as Earthlust, To Go Ware, and Trudeau. Global Baskets LLC strives to belong to the numerous solutions available creating more Smarties everyday.
Global Baskets LLC is a small private business that uses every opportunity to reduce its carbon footprint while encouraging others to do the same. Here are some of the ways:
- We package our products in reused or recycled boxes and packaging materials
- Our website purchases carbon offsets.
- Our long distance phone service Earth Tones who give 100% of their profits to grassroots environmental organizations.
- Our faxes arrive via email to conserve paper
- Our work tables and benches come from reclaimed architectural or pre owned furniture or old antiques.
- Our office is lit naturally and via compact fluorescent bulbWe purchase our electricity from 100% Wind power farm in Western Maryland from Washington Power and Electric
- Marketing material is printed on 100% recycled paper and with eco-inks
- Invoices when are printed on 100% recycled paper.
