Products & Ideas...

Back when I worked in an office every day, I used to love borrowing the supply catalogs from our department's administrator. Oh, the amazing lists of products I would find inside those magic pages! Papers of all colors, pens of all shapes and sizes, filing supplies for the most obsessive cublicle jockey...

I'm not buying many supplies these days, but if I were still in an office, I'd definitely be pointing my buyer to GreenLine Paper Company, a supplier of "recycled and trade-free papers" and all sorts of other environmentally friendly office supplies. Their paper products use a high percentage of post-consumer waste, including some that are 100% post-consumer, as well as several that are processed without the use of chlorine.

The catalog also offers a wide variety of environmentally friendly pens, kitchen supplies, toilet papers, and recycled toner cartridges. They even sell organic coffee, tea and chocolate for the break room!

GreenLine also takes a responsible path for their shipping, by reusing shipping cartons.

You can request a copy of their catalog by mail, or you can skip wasting that paper and download it in PDF form.

GreenLine doesn't offer everything you might need for your office (no executive nick nacks?), but they're a pretty good solution for anyone looking to make their office more environmentally responsible.
