Choosing Branded Merchandise

Sustainable & Impact-Informed Merchandise

8 questions

Evergreen Merch can source promotional products with product-specific information about materials and other available environmental attributes. This may include products containing recycled, organic, renewable or other alternative materials, where those characteristics are supported by supplier or product information. Because environmental impact depends on more than one factor, we avoid assuming that a product is automatically better for the environment simply because of one material or marketing label.

There is no single characteristic that makes a promotional product sustainable. Factors may include the materials used, durability, sourcing, certifications, packaging, expected use and end-of-life options.

Organic cotton is produced according to recognised organic production standards, which can involve different agricultural practices from conventional cotton. However, this does not by itself establish the overall environmental impact of a finished garment. Consider the entire product and relevant evidence before making comparisons.

Fairtrade clothing refers to garments covered by relevant Fairtrade standards or certification. Businesses should check the specific certification and understand which materials, producers or stages of the supply chain it applies to.

Popular options can include branded apparel, reusable drinkware, tote bags, notebooks and practical desk products. The most appropriate choice depends on the audience, campaign, budget and specific product characteristics.

Where product information is available, we can help you compare factors such as materials, product specifications, packaging and other relevant attributes. This can help you make a more informed choice rather than relying on broad terms such as "green" or "eco-friendly".

Depending on the product, available materials may include recycled plastics, recycled textiles, organic cotton, cork, bamboo, wood, paper, glass and stainless steel. The characteristics of each product vary, so we recommend reviewing product-specific information rather than making assumptions based on the material alone.

Durability depends on the individual product, its construction and intended use. Products containing recycled or alternative materials are not automatically more or less durable than conventional products. We can help you compare specifications and select a product suited to its intended use.

Yes. Depending on the garment, branding options may include embroidery, screen printing, heat transfer and other suitable decoration methods. We'll recommend an option based on the garment, artwork and intended use.

Ordering & Delivery

4 questions

Most promotional products have minimum order quantities, but these vary depending on the product, supplier and branding method. Some products may be available in smaller quantities, while custom-manufactured items generally require higher minimum orders.

Samples may be available depending on the product and supplier. We can discuss unbranded samples, existing product samples, digital mock-ups or pre-production samples for selected projects.

Lead times vary depending on the product, quantity, branding method and stock availability. Some locally stocked products may be available more quickly, while custom or overseas-manufactured products generally require longer planning. If you have a fixed event date, contact us as early as possible.
