Do you need a cheap, green and useful tool to promote your eco-friendly business idea? Well look no further than the World Famous RETREAD© Jar Openers from Americanna.
These items could easily be our top seller for 2008 in terms of interest from clients. At EQP $0.41 per unit, the jar openers – also a great garlic peeler or coaster – come in over 150 shapes and provide likely the largest print area on a promotional item for your money.
As the name implies the World Famous RETREAD© Jar Openers are made from recycled tires. They come in many green theme shapes like suns, trees, water drops, homes, hearts, school houses, feet (as in lower your green footprint), you get the idea.
We love this item because it really, really works and people hang onto to them. They are cheap and light enough to use in mailings, great for handing out at events, and perfect as an easy to understand example of recycle and reuse thinking, i.e. this was a tire now it opens jars, ok. Got it.
More information on the World Famous RETREAD© Jar Openers is available here or just visit the Americanna website.
