New 2010 Berrii Eco Sling bag - recycled denim and community craft

”Business is the only mechanism on the planet today powerful enough to produce the changes necessary to reverse environmental and societal degradation.” – Paul Barken

Good, responsible business is needed. Again it reinforces why, though going the route of recycling in the fashion field is tough, its the only choice to make.

Growing in Success in the Corporate Promotional Gift arena

Corporates are keen on Ben & Bear’s new eco friendly promotional products!

We have been overwhelmed with the success of our eco laptop sleeves in the corporate promotional product industry. Corporates are desperate to find unique eco friendly promotional items for their key events and Ben & Bears laptop sleeves, created from recycled inner tubes of tyre and lined with Thai silk and cotton handles, are proving to be in huge demand. Clients can customise them with their own branding and messaging, and we have also just done an order where we  jazzed the bags up a bit for the ladies, by using jewellery made in community projects as a design feature on the one side of the laptop sleeve. Colourful and elegant and most importantly the ladies loved them!

Ben & Bear is expanding their product range this year into the eco promotional gifts market, and will be creating products in the following areas of interest: conference bags, sports bags (golf ball bags, tennis racquet bags, tog bags, diving bags etc), CD holders and even picnic rugs and beach mats. And many more…

Our other key design this year will be eco wine bottle holders – for one or two bottles. Wine clubs in Singapore and Hong Kong have already shown keen interest and we are now targetting vineyards to see if they would like us to create their own customised wine bottle holders for their ranges.

An exciting year up ahead for this eco fashion brand – adventuring into new spaces to spread the eco recycling message!
